Generic scaffold

A complete program, not a fragment: it compiles as written. Copy it, rename the placeholder identifiers to your domain, and run axon check — the compiler will tell you what your renaming broke. An MCP client can also generate it through the axon.compose tool by naming the generic domain.

// Generic AXON scaffold — adapt the names, ranges, and prompts to the
// adopter's intent. Every primitive is real and compiles end-to-end;
// the placeholder identifiers (`MyDomain`, `Input`, `Output`,
// `MyFlow`, …) are renamed by the adopter (or by the agent driving
// the compose call) without touching grammar.
