Notes
Category check (PLAN.md): Axon is a server-side Matrix client (a bouncer in the ZNC sense) plus first-party clients that speak its own API, so it is filed as a client. Its "agent" wording means an always-on sync agent, not an AI agent. Slug `axon` (product name), repo matrix-axon/matrix-axon.
Researched by an AI agent (Claude) on 5 Nov 2026, not checked by a person; metrics collected on 5 Nov 2026. Source file: data/projects/client/axon.yaml. Spotted a mistake? Open an issue with a link.
