The Jev AI Ecosystem

Within days of launch, developers started building on Jev's typed-decision primitive — agents, guardrails, database filters, games, and even an open-source reproduction of the interface itself. This directory tracks the notable ones.

Open-source reproduction

Reference impl.

openjev

Reproduces the Jev interface pattern on a small open model by reading typed option probabilities off the logits. The community's answer to “is this a durable primitive or a vendor wrapper?” — apparently durable.

Agents

Browser

jev-ultrafast

Browser Use's agent with Jev as its decision layer — completed a Zürich→London Google Flights search in 7.1 seconds.

Mobile

mobile-jev

Droidrun's phone agent drove Uber on a real Android device: 9 actions in ~21 seconds (no booking completed).

Computer use

typesafe-computer-use

Computer-use agent with Jev as the cheap gatekeeper for every action.

Games

heist-one

Jev runs the guard AI logic in a heist game demo — decisions, not scripts.

Infrastructure & tooling

Safety

jev-guard

Rates every agent tool call as deny / ask / allow against your rules before execution.

Databases

pg-jev

Adds plain-language filtering to Postgres queries via Jev decisions.

Smart home

HA-Jev

Turns Jev answers into Home Assistant entities for smart-home logic.

Media

jevmeter

Scores every sentence of a video debate for about $0.05 total.

Realtime UI

Typewriter

Steve Krouse's live typing demo — 16 Jev judgments update in real time as you type.

Experiments

jev-trader

Market-signal experiments. Independent testing showed Jev does no better than a coin flip on short-horizon prediction — see the rule.

What the first month says

Three patterns are worth reading out of this directory. First, the reproducers moved fast: openjev existing at all is strong evidence that the typed-decision interface — not just the hosted model — is the product. Second, the winners are cost-shaped: nearly every useful project uses Jev as a cheap gatekeeper in front of something expensive — an agent’s tool calls, a database query, a generation pass — not as the star of the show. Third, the failures are instructive: experiments that tried to make Jev predict the future landed at coin-flip level, exactly what its design implies.

How projects get in

There is no submission form and no paid placement. A project enters this directory when it does something real and demonstrable with Jev — usually spotted via its Hacker News thread or GitHub topic feed by the automated tracker, then verified and described by the editor. Projects that only wrap the API without a working demo are skipped, and wherever independent testing contradicted an author’s claim, we say so (see jev-trader above).

Reading the numbers honestly

Latency and cost figures in the cards come from the project authors’ own posts and demos. Where we could reproduce them independently, we did; where we couldn’t, treat them as reported values. The ecosystem is a month old — expect churn, abandoned repos and API drift, and pin your dependencies.
