Install Migration Path

skills CLI
$ npx skills add AxonIQ/AxonFramework --skill migration-path -a claude-code

Project install by default; add -g for ~/.claude/skills/.

GitHub CLI
$ gh skill install AxonIQ/AxonFramework migration-path --agent claude-code

Project scope by default; add --scope user for a personal install. Needs GitHub CLI 2.90.0 or later (public preview).

Manual copy
$ git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/AxonIQ/AxonFramework.git skills-src && mkdir -p .claude/skills && cp -r skills-src/.claude/skills/migration-path .claude/skills/migration-path && rm -rf skills-src

Use ~/.claude/skills/ instead of .claude/skills for a personal install. The folder must contain SKILL.md.

What it does

Migration Path is an agent skill from AxonIQ/AxonFramework. Create a new Axon Framework 4→5 migration path documentation page. Use when the user says "create migration path", "migration path for", "document migration", "migration guide for", or any variation of creating migration documentation for a specific Axon Framework feature or API change.

Its SKILL.md is about 590 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Development, covering Code migrations, Domain-driven design and Event-driven systems. It works with Java. The repository describes itself as: Framework for Evolutionary Message-Driven Microservices on the JVM. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • The user says create migration path
  • Migration path for
  • Document migration
  • Migration guide for

Example prompts

  • “create migration path”
  • “migration path for”
  • “document migration”
  • “/migration-path”

Workflow steps

7 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Gather Requirements
  2. Study Existing Patterns
  3. Research the AF5 APIs
  4. Create the New Page
  5. Update the Nav
  6. Update the Index
  7. Show a Summary

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit acb0b5f. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • gh

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use gh, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Migration Path loads about 594 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 76 tokens; SKILL.md has 263 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~76
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~594

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Migration Path Documentation Generator

Create a new Framework 4→5 migration path documentation page.

Arguments

  • $ARGUMENTS: The GitHub issue number (e.g. "4092") OR a description of what the migration path should cover.

Instructions

1. Gather Requirements

If a GitHub issue number is provided, fetch it with gh issue view <number> --repo AxonIQ/AxonFramework to understand what the migration path should cover. If not found there, try gh issue view <number> --repo AxonIQ/axoniq-framework. Otherwise, use the provided description.

2. Study Existing Patterns

Read 1-2 existing migration path files from docs/reference-guide/modules/migration/pages/paths/ to match the established structure and tone.

3. Research the AF5 APIs

Explore the codebase to understand the AF5 replacements for the AF4 concepts being migrated. Look at actual interfaces, classes, and method signatures so the documentation is accurate.

4. Create the New Page

Create the page at docs/reference-guide/modules/migration/pages/paths/<name>.adoc following these conventions:

  • Start with a title (= <Topic> Migration) and :navtitle:
  • Include an introductory paragraph explaining the change
  • Add a [NOTE] block summarizing the most significant changes
  • Organize into logical sections (API changes, configuration, Spring Boot, etc.)
  • Always use [tabs] blocks with Axon Framework 4:: shown first, then Axon Framework 5:: second
  • Include "Key changes" or "Key characteristics" bullet points after code samples
  • Use accurate package names and method signatures from the actual codebase
5. Update the Nav

Add the new page to docs/reference-guide/modules/migration/partials/nav.adoc.

6. Update the Index

Add a reference link in docs/reference-guide/modules/migration/pages/paths/index.adoc under the "Specific Migration Paths" list. If there's a "Coming soon" placeholder for this topic, replace it.

7. Show a Summary

Show a summary of the new page's sections and what was updated.
