jevgrep (code search)

A CLI that asks Jev which files and declarations answer a repository question, then prints verbatim excerpts for a coding agent to use.

Highlights

  • On ten tuned Python SWE-bench tasks, Jevgrep and the no-Jev baseline each solved 8 of 10.
  • Full Sol cost on that set fell from $7.62 to $5.44, a 28.6% reduction, excluding Jev's own cost.
  • Requires Node.js 22 or newer, macOS or Linux, and a Vercel, TypeSafe, OpenRouter, or OpenCode Zen key.
  • Declaration parsing covers Python and TypeScript or JavaScript. Other text uses a fallback.
  • jg skill installs the agent skill. The CLI alone does not teach the agent to call it.

Quickstart

bash
npm install -g @dzhng/jevgrep
jg auth
jg "How are telemetry events recorded and sent?" ./my-project

Watch out

MIT. Distinct from allebee/jevgrep, which filters log lines. Source you search is sent to the chosen provider. The cost result is one ten-task comparison.

found the perfect use case for @typesafeai Jev: instant compaction in 2026, why is compaction still a summarization prompt? Jev can make it instant by scoring every tool call and dropping what’s irrelevant

After co-inventing ChatGPT, I kept asking myself: why have superhuman chat models not led to AGI? I’ve spent the last 2 years in stealth building a new way to train models (RLCD), and a new type of frontier AI model that we are releasing today: Jev • 20-200x faster • 40-400x
