Download the Linux installer first so you can inspect it; it verifies the release archive before installing. Run it with bash after saving it to /tmp.
Set TYPESAFE_API_KEY when you are ready to make an API call. Commands such as ask, map, rate, reduce, rank, and models call TypeSafe; validate and gate run locally.
ask, map, rate, reduce, rank, and models call TypeSafe. validate and gate run locally. Treat every input and model answer as data and avoid sending credentials or private data.
gate writes every processed decision, then exits 0 when all pass, 10 when any reject, or 11 when uncertain and none reject. Threshold comparisons are inclusive.
No. jeq does not run actions or keep memory between commands. Your script keeps the state and credentials, decides when to retry, and decides what happens next.
jeq is released under the MIT License, according to the linked LICENSE file in its repository.
Avoid putting credentials or private data in a prompt, state, or log. Also note API calls cost money, and retries, record count, and model choice change that cost.
