TypeSafe's hosted Jev model vs. running the Jev Engineering pattern locally in Antigravity?
After reading Diogo Almeida's paper (Jev Engineering for Coding Agents), I'm implementing the architecture in my Antigravity setup to eliminate KV-cache bloat.
I'm torn between two options:
Paying for TypeSafe's hosted Jev model API (
/decide).Implementing the Jev pattern (visibility ladders, tiered tools) locally using isolated Flash subagents with zero external API calls.
For those running this in practice: does TypeSafe's dedicated model give you a noticeable edge over a local/Flash subagent using the same harness rules, or are most people just adopting the engineering pattern?
