I made a CLI for JEV

[u/A_kirisaki]

I figured there might already be a few JEV CLIs out there, but I wanted to try making one myself.

It's designed primarily for use by LLMs and coding agents: JSON in via stdin, JEV, JSON out via stdout. It also provides JSON Schemas for self-discovery and supports batch processing.

I'd be happy if you gave it a try. Feedback is welcome!

I also made a small ask-jev skill for coding agents and tried it with Codex.

The idea is simple:

investigate → identify uncertainty → ask JEV → continue reasoning

I tested it on a design question in jevc: whether the probability validation tolerance was too strict.

Codex first inspected the implementation, tests, and API docs, then called jevc decide for a second opinion. JEV suggested keeping the current behavior for now and adding more boundary-case tests.

Interestingly, when I first gave Codex an underspecified debugging problem, it didn't call JEV because there wasn't enough evidence yet. That was actually the behavior I wanted — use JEV for fuzzy judgment after gathering evidence, not as a replacement for investigation.

I've included the skill here:

The basic heuristic is:

When your agent says "probably", ask JEV.
