Highlights

  • Jev chooses the element, action, completion state, and risk from interface text candidates; screenshots are never sent.
  • Runs in dry-run by default, and delete, send, pay, authorize, upload, captcha, install, and system-settings actions stop at confirm.
  • The app allowlist lives in scripts/policy.mjs, and adding an app requires editing it explicitly.
  • Interface text is treated as data rather than instructions, and the skill does not bypass logins, paywalls, or captchas.
  • Installs into ~/.codex/skills/jev-cu with npm run install-skill, and npm run p0 measures element-selection accuracy on recorded AX snapshots.

Quickstart

bash
npm run install-skill
echo 'TYPESAFE_API_KEY=YOUR_API_KEY' > .env.local
npm test

Watch out

MIT-licensed. Needs Codex desktop's cua_repl runtime and a TYPESAFE_API_KEY; it is experimental, its execution-policy limits require review, and the offline P0 evaluation still calls Jev.
