jev-use

English | 简体中文

The best way for Claude Code, Codex, and pi to work with Jev: hand the tasks that need no text output to Jev — faster steps, fewer tokens, tasks done sooner and better.

It makes the LLM and Jev true collaborators: when content needs to be written, the LLM takes over; when a step just needs a fast decision, Jev executes it.

Demos — real runs, 1× speed

Every demo is a rerunnable script in bench/examples/; all numbers, methodology, variance and caveats: bench/RESULTS.md · third-party measurements: docs/evidence.md.

Install

npx -y jev-use install    # wires Claude Code, Codex, and pi — whichever it finds

Set one key in the environment your agent runs in (JEV_BACKEND=mock for a keyless dry run):

npx -y jev-use doctor checks the wiring. Judged state goes to the provider you configure; JEV_BACKEND=mock stays local. Plugin form with the routing skill and the PreToolUse gate: harness/claude-code · harness/codex.

Use as a library

npm i jev-use — zero runtime dependencies on the judgment path:

import { Jev, check, pick, rate } from "jev-use";

const jev = new Jev();

const { answers } = await jev.judge(state, {
  next: pick("Next action?", { merge: "all green", rerun: "looks flaky", hold: "needs attention" }),
  risk: rate("How risky?", ["routine", "worth a look", "incident"]),
  passed: check("Did the run fully succeed?"),
});
// answers.next → { answer: "merge", confidence: 0.93, confidenceFrom: "reported", escalate: false }

Anything Jev can't or shouldn't decide comes back with escalate: true and a typed reason. Tools, verdict shape, escalation contract, CLI: docs/reference.md.
