Templates

Axint ships 53 bundled templates. Each template is a complete, compile-tested starter definition covering a common App Intents or Apple workflow shape. They’re a great starting point: copy one, rename it, adjust the parameters to match your app, and compile.

From the CLI:

axint templates              # list all templates
axint templates --json       # machine-readable for CI / MCP
axint templates send-message # print the source of a specific template

From the MCP server (for AI assistants):

axint.templates.list
axint.templates.get { "name": "send-message" }
