Context and Scope

Scope defines the boundary within which an operation executes. Context provides the environmental information needed for execution.

Scope Levels

Scope	Description	Example
global	Accessible to all users	Public product search
catalog	Scoped to a product catalog	Category-specific search
tenant	Scoped to an organizational tenant	Multi-tenant SaaS operations
organization	Scoped to an organization	Team-level settings
user	Scoped to an individual user	Profile updates
session	Scoped to an active session	Cart operations
customer	Scoped to a customer account	Order history

Why Scope Matters

An agent operating within a multi-tenant SaaS product must know that tenant scope means operations are isolated to the current tenant. Without this declaration, an agent might attempt cross-tenant operations that should be forbidden.

Context Inheritance

AXAG supports context inheritance — child elements can inherit scope from parent containers:

<div axag-scope="tenant" axag-tenant-id="acme-corp">
  <button axag-intent="user.create" axag-entity="user" axag-action-type="create">
    Add User
  </button>
  <!-- This button inherits scope="tenant" and tenant-id="acme-corp" -->
</div>
