  ### Quick Setup
143
168
 
169
+ The recommended way to configure AX CLI is using the interactive setup wizard:
170
+
144
171
  ```bash
145
- # Set your API key (for cloud providers)
146
- export YOUR_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
172
+ # Run the setup wizard (recommended)
173
+ ax-cli setup
174
+
175
+ # This will:
176
+ # 1. Guide you through provider selection (Z.AI, OpenAI, Anthropic, Ollama, etc.)
177
+ # 2. Securely encrypt and store your API key (AES-256-GCM encryption)
178
+ # 3. Configure default model and settings
179
+ # 4. Validate your configuration
180
+ ```
147
181
 
148
- # Or configure in settings
149
- ax-cli # Will prompt for API key on first run
182
+ **Alternative: Environment Variable Override**
183
+
184
+ For CI/CD pipelines or temporary overrides, you can set an environment variable:
185
+
186
+ ```bash
187
+ # Override API key temporarily (not recommended for daily use)
188
+ export YOUR_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
189
+ ax-cli
150
190
  ```
151
191
 
192
+ **⚠️ Security Note**: API keys are automatically encrypted in config files using AES-256-GCM encryption. **Do not manually edit `~/.ax-cli/config.json`** - always use `ax-cli setup` to update your API key securely.

  ## 📋 Working with Large Content
361
403
 
362
- When working with large amounts of text (logs, code files, documentation), use **file-based workflows** instead of pasting directly into the terminal.
404
+ AX CLI has **intelligent paste handling** that automatically manages large text inputs for better readability.
405
+
406
+ ### 📝 Smart Paste Auto-Collapse
407
+
408
+ When you paste **20+ lines** of text, AX CLI automatically collapses it:
363
409
 
364
- ### ⚠️ Terminal Paste Limitations
410
+ - **Automatic Detection**: Pastes with 20+ lines are auto-collapsed
411
+ - ✅ **Clean Display**: Shows `[Pasted text #1 +89 lines]` instead of cluttering the UI
412
+ - ✅ **Full Submission**: Complete text is still sent to the AI (not just the placeholder)
413
+ - ✅ **Review Anytime**: Press **Ctrl+P** on a collapsed block to expand/collapse
414
+
415
+ **Example:**
416
+ ```bash
417
+ # Paste a 100-line error log
418
+ # → Shows: [Pasted text #1 +100 lines]
419
+ # → AI receives: Full 100 lines
420
+
421
+ # Position cursor on placeholder and press Ctrl+P to review
422
+ # → Expands to show all 100 lines
423
+ ```
424
+
425
+ **Configure in `~/.ax-cli/config.json`:**
426
+ ```json
427
+ {
428
+ "paste": {
429
+ "autoCollapse": true, // Enable/disable (default: true)
430
+ "collapseThreshold": 20 // Min lines to collapse (default: 20)
431
+ }

+ }

- - **Technical queries** → Tavily (if configured) or npm fallback

- - **News queries** → Brave (if configured) or npm fallback

+ - **Rust packages** → crates.io registry search (always available, no API key)
595
+ - **General/technical queries** → package search fallback
596
+
597
+ - **Language Detection**: Automatically detects programming language from keywords
598
+ - Python keywords (pip, django, flask, pandas) → PyPI
599
+ - Rust keywords (cargo, crate, tokio, serde) → crates.io
600
+ - npm/package keywords → npm registry
601
+ - Multiple engines may be used in parallel for best results

- - **Automatic Caching**: Results cached for 5 minutes to reduce API costs
603
+ - **Automatic Caching**: Results cached for 5 minutes for faster subsequent queries
538

539
- - **LLM Integration**: The AI decides when to search based on:
540
- - Real-time information needs
541
- - Documentation lookups
542
- - Current events
543
- - Questions beyond training data
605
+ - **LLM Integration**: The AI automatically uses package search for:

+

+ - yup: 5.2M/week, Schema builder, 45KB
732
+

+ | ky | 1.2M | 12KB | 2 weeks ago | ✅ | ✅ |
755
+
756
+ > "which is best for Node.js backend with retry logic?"
757
+ Recommendation: **got**
758
+ - Built-in retry with exponential backoff
759
+ - HTTP/2 support
760
+ - Request cancellation
761
+ - Promise & stream support
762
+ ```
763
+
764
+ **Session Management:**
765
+
766
+ - **Session Duration**: Active for entire interactive session
767
+ - **History Integration**: Search results included in `--continue` sessions
768
+ - **Memory Commands**:
769
+ ```bash
770
+ /clear # Clears search context and conversation
771
+ /exit # Ends session (context lost)
772
+ ```
773
+ - **Persistent Context**: Use with `--continue` to maintain search context across sessions
774
+
775
+ **Best Practices:**
776
+
777
+ 1. **Start Broad, Refine Iteratively**:
778
+ ```bash
779
+ > "search npm for testing libraries"
780
+ Found: jest, vitest, mocha, jasmine, playwright, cypress
781
+
782
+ > "focus on those for integration testing"
783
+ Integration testing: playwright, cypress, vitest (has browser mode)
784
+
785
+ > "which has TypeScript support?"
786
+ All 3 have TypeScript:
787
+ - playwright: Native TS
788
+ - cypress: Full TS support
789
+ - vitest: Native TS (Vite-powered)
790
+
791
+ > "show setup for playwright"
792
+ npm install -D @playwright/test
793
+ [Provides example config and test]
794
+ ```
795
+
796
+ 2. **Leverage Context for Framework Comparisons**:
797
+ ```bash
798
+ > "search npm for react vue svelte packages"
799
+ Found core packages with download stats:
800
+ - react: 22M/week
801
+ - vue: 5.1M/week
802
+ - svelte: 850K/week
803
+
804
+ > "compare their package ecosystems"
805
+ **React:** 180K+ packages
806
+ **Vue:** 45K+ packages
807
+ **Svelte:** 8K+ packages
808
+
809
+ > "which has better TypeScript support?"
810
+ All have excellent TS support:
811
+ - React: @types/react (20M/week)
812
+ - Vue: Built-in TS (Vue 3+)
813
+ - Svelte: svelte-check + TypeScript plugin
814
+ ```
815
+
816
+ 3. **Version Compatibility Checks**:
817
+ ```bash
818
+ > "search npm for next auth package"
819
+ Found: next-auth (8M/week, v4.24.5)
820
+
821
+ > "does it work with Next.js 15?"
822
+ ⚠️ Compatibility:
823
+ - next-auth v4: Next.js 12-14
824
+ - For Next.js 15: Use NextAuth.js v5 (beta)
825
+
826
+ > "show me the v5 package"
827
+ Package: next-auth@beta (v5.0.0-beta.4)
828
+ ✅ Next.js 15 compatible
829
+ [Installation and migration guide]
830
+ ```
831
+
832
+ 4. **Combine Search with Development Tasks**:
833
+ ```bash
834
+ > "search npm for a markdown parser library"
835
+ Found: marked, remark, markdown-it, showdown
836
+
837
+ > "which is fastest and most secure?"
838
+ Recommendation: **marked**
839
+ - 13M/week downloads
840
+ - Fast (built-in sanitization)
841
+ - Active maintenance
842
+
843
+ > "install marked and show me basic usage"
844
+ Installing: npm install marked
845
+ [Generates code example with marked usage]
846
+
847
+ > "add it to my project"
848
+ [Creates/updates relevant files with implementation]
849
+ ```
850
+
851
+ **Performance Tips:**
852
+
853
+ - **First search**: 1-3 seconds (registry API call)
854
+ - **Follow-up questions**: Instant (uses cached package data)
855
+ - **Cache duration**: 5 minutes per query
856
+ - **Parallel searches**: Multiple registries searched concurrently for cross-language queries
857
+ - **Offline work**: Use `--continue` to preserve search context across sessions
575
858
 
576
859
  ### Troubleshooting
577
860
 
578
- **"No search engines configured"**
579
- - Set at least one API key (TAVILY_API_KEY or BRAVE_API_KEY)
861
+ **No results found**
862
+ - Package registries (npm, PyPI, crates.io) are always available
863
+ - Try refining your search query
864
+ - Check your internet connection
580
865
 
581
866
  **Rate limit errors**
582
- - Check your usage at provider dashboards
867
+ - Package registry searches are rate-limited by the registry providers
583
868
  - Results are cached to minimize API calls
584
869
 
585
870
  **Slow searches**
586
- - Use `basic` search depth (default)
587
- - Results are cached after first search
871
+ - Results are cached after first search (5 minute TTL)
872
+ - Subsequent identical queries will be instant
