Jev Effort

A Claude Code mod that sends each prompt to Jev through OpenRouter and turns the returned 0-3 score into a reasoning effort level, from low to xhigh. Shadow mode is on by default, so it only logs what it would set until you turn it off.

Claude Code mod: per-prompt reasoning effort via Jev (OpenRouter)

Repo stats from the GitHub API, cached Oct 2026.

Highlights

  • The prompt goes to Jev through OpenRouter; a 0-3 score maps to low, medium, high or xhigh effort, and the effort holds for the turn.
  • Shadow mode is on by default: the mod logs what it would set, for example 'shadow · jev 0.42 → low (conf 0.71, 212ms)', without changing the effort.
  • Requires Claude Code 2.1.259 or later and an OpenRouter API key; with no key, the mod does nothing.
  • Defaults: upgrade needs 0.3 confidence, downgrade 0.6, the Jev wait times out at 800 ms and it uses the model ~typesafe/jev-latest.
  • Privacy: up to 2,000 chars of your prompt, 1,500 of the last reply and 3 earlier prompts; tool inputs, file contents and the system prompt are never sent.

Quickstart

bash
git clone https://github.com/gebeer/jev-effort.git

Watch out

README reviewed 2026-10-17; the README says MIT while GitHub metadata reports NOASSERTION, the only testing note is 'Tested on Claude Code 2.1.289, 2026-10-04', and no independent benchmarks exist. An effort change creates a new cache on older models.
