… tasks

AX is undergoing a significant redesign, moving away from a single CLI with an embedded Python harness toward a general-purpose orchestration layer for agentic tasks. The repository is reorganized around three binaries: ax-server exposes a gRPC API for submitting Task manifests, ax-controller runs as a horizontally scaled reconciler that consumes work from Redis Streams, and ax-task-runner executes tasks inside sandboxed workers. Task state now lives in Redis rather than Kubernetes CRDs so the system can handle millions of short-lived tasks without straining etcd. The legacy Python harness, ATE client, SQL event log, and skill examples are removed, and new design, concepts, manifest, networking, runner, and sandbox docs plus Kubernetes deploy manifests describe the new architecture.
