Jev Classifier

A tool-selection layer for Codex and Claude Code that filters the available tools before expensive model calls.

Jev Classifier preview from the original source

Overview & result

jev-classifier brings Jev tool selection to Codex and Claude Code; the author says it reduces input-token usage substantially by selecting tools before the main coding-agent call.

From the original post

I built jev-classifier, an open-source tool that brings JEV tool selection to coding agents like Codex and Claude Code.

In my benchmarks, input-token usage per task dropped ~88% on Claude Fable 5.1 and ~85% on GPT-6 Astra.

How Jev fits in the loop

  1. The coding agent receives a user task and a catalog of tools or skills.
  2. Jev chooses the relevant bounded tool or skill.
  3. The coding agent executes with the selected context and handles failures or fallbacks.

How to reproduce

  1. Read the repository benchmark instructions and record the exact model, tool catalog, and task set.
  2. Run the full-tool-schema baseline and the Jev-filtered condition on the same tasks.
  3. Report token usage, selected-tool accuracy, latency, and false-selection cases separately.

Why this build matters

It addresses a practical scaling problem for coding agents: large tool registries consume context even when only one tool is relevant.

Limitations

  • The reviewed post does not expose the benchmark task set or the decision rubric.
  • Token savings can hide missed tools, so selection accuracy and fallback behavior must be measured.
  • The reported percentages are author-reported, not JevForAgents measurements.
