# Aphoria Guides

Quick-start guides and workflows for Aphoria users.

**New to Aphoria?** Start with **LLM-driven workflows** for autonomous operation.

## LLM Workflows (Primary Interface)

**Aphoria is designed for LLM-driven autonomous operation:**

| Interface | Use Case | Documentation |
|-----------|----------|---------------|
| **Claude Code Skills** | Interactive agent workflows | Load `/aphoria-claims`, `/aphoria-suggest` |
| **Go ADK Agents** | Fully autonomous CI/CD | See [ADK-Go Integration](../../../sdk/go/adk/) |
| **Custom LLM Integration** | Any tool-use capable LLM | See [LLM Wiki Extraction](./llm-wiki-extraction.md) |

**Why LLM workflows?**
- Enforce naming conventions (manual errors break tail-path matching)
- Reason about consequences (not just pattern matching)
- Suggest claims from patterns automatically
- Create extractors for custom patterns
- **Enable the autonomous flywheel** (scan→fix→evaluate→claim→create)

**The CLI is a debug/fallback interface.** For production use, integrate LLM workflows.
