Highlights
- Installs with a one-line PowerShell or shell script and is published on PyPI as jev-claud.
- A hook in ~/.claude/settings.json compacts pytest, npm test, and cargo build output, cutting 70% to 85%.
- MCP tools such as classify, rank, and summarize_file are available to the main agent.
- Ships the Jevin plugin with the jev skill and the scout subagent for code exploration.
- Local summarization runs on Ollama with six effort levels and a JEV_CLAUD_OFFLINE mode; jev-claud spend reports savings.
Questions about this entry
Short answers drawn from the linked project or page.
Run the one-line installer for your platform: the PowerShell script on Windows, or the shell script on macOS and Linux. The assistant asks before each step, then you add the Jevin plugin from Personalization › Skills, or let the assistant install it in Claude Code.
It compacts test and build output before it reaches Claude, cutting 70% to 85% of output for commands like pytest, npm test, and cargo build, and it processes data files outside the context window instead of reading them in full.
The MCP tools include classify, rank, and summarize_file. They are registered at user scope in Claude Code, and a global rule in ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md tells Claude when to use each tool and when to answer directly.
Local summarization runs on Ollama on your own machine, free and without internet, with six effort levels from baixo to ultracode. Jev decisions are not billed, and the default configuration has zero cost.
Only the plugin does. Cloud sessions run on an Anthropic machine that clones the repository, so the hook, MCP tools, global rule, and local Ollama are absent. Use Remote Control to keep the session running on your own computer.
Run jev-claud setup --check to confirm everything is active, and jev-claud update to refresh the package, the Jev SDK, the Jevin plugin, and the global rule. Open new conversations afterwards.
The README and documentation are written in Portuguese. The project is maintained by thiago-lage and distributed as jev-claud on GitHub and PyPI.
