Spec Driven Development
MCP Server that facilitates spec-driven development workflows, not just Vibe Coding.
Description from the maker (original English)
Typed yes/no, pick-one and score judgments from Jev in one batched call; typed escalation back.
These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.
We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.
Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Compared with every active server in this category in the registry. Stars count only when the publisher owns the repo.
It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.
The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.
It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).
The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.8.0) reached the registry 2 months ago.

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.
Directions task: Jev clicks, the LLM types — 10 decisions (p50 274 ms) · 4 writes; Jev rejects a wrong route, the LLM rewrites
Context compaction — 200 messages judged in 7 calls, one LLM paragraph replaces the dropped pile; recall 3/3
Pong: ball speed = decision latency — 86 Jev decisions in 20 s vs 6 (haiku) and 3 (gemini) called the usual way; enum-constrain both and the gap is 3×
Gate every shell command — dangerous ones denied in ~230 ms with a reason, zero LLM tokens
Every demo is a rerunnable script in bench/examples/; all numbers, methodology, variance and caveats: bench/RESULTS.md · third-party measurements: docs/evidence.md.
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):
| Provider | Env var |
|---|---|
| TypeSafe direct | TYPESAFE_API_KEY |
| OpenRouter | OPENROUTER_API_KEY |
| Vercel AI Gateway | AI_GATEWAY_API_KEY |
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.
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.
