What it does

Jev Launcher is an agent skill from autonomous-ai/openharness. Design and verify Jev's command palettes in OpenHarness's viewer, where Jev ranks launch targets live per keystroke.

Its SKILL.md is about 610 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: The ultimate harness for coding agents and beyond. All your agents. All your machines. One command center. Start with code, then follow your curiosity and build across… The licence is MIT.

Example prompts

  • “s command palettes in OpenHarness”
  • “/jev-launcher”

Requirements

  • A credential in TYPESAFE_API_KEY

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Update launcher.json (title, prompt, and the target list with categories + aliases). The viewer
  2. node "$JEV_DSH/toolchain/check.mjs" verifies the workspace's launcher.json is valid. Run it
  3. Watch the ranking. Does Jev's top pick track the query you typed — or does it pick the same

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit cc4983e. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • node

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • TYPESAFE_API_KEY

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Jev Launcher loads about 605 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 32 tokens; SKILL.md has 263 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~32
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~605

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Jev Launcher palette design

Jev Launcher shows a live predictive command palette: Jev (TypeSafe's System One model) reads a query and ranks which launch target to surface first, on every keystroke. The agent designs launcher.json — the palette of targets and the aliases Jev fuzzy-matches against.

The loop

  1. Update launcher.json (title, prompt, and the target list with categories + aliases). The viewer watches it and Jev adapts live — no restart, no second server.
  2. node "$JEV_DSH/toolchain/check.mjs" verifies the workspace's launcher.json is valid. Run it before you call a palette done.
  3. Watch the ranking. Does Jev's top pick track the query you typed — or does it pick the same target regardless? That observation is the finding.

Reading Jev

The viewer shows the full ranking with confidence bars for the current query. A good palette produces movement: Jev should re-rank as the query narrows. Distinct aliases and overlapping ones ("ship", "release", "deploy") give Jev real signals; a query with no alias coverage makes Jev guess no matter what. An idle palette (nothing typed) should lead with featured targets.

Verifying a palette

node "$JEV_DSH/toolchain/check.mjs" returns non-zero when launcher.json is invalid (no title, fewer than two targets, duplicate names). It doesn't replace watching the ranking: type partial queries and confirm Jev's pick moves toward the target whose aliases match, and that a confident short query snaps to a clear winner.

Driving Jev yourself

toolchain/jev.mjs exports a small client. Example (from the workspace) — ask Jev's read on a query before you commit to it:

bash
node --input-type=module -e '
import { evaluate, jev } from "$JEV_DSH/toolchain/jev.mjs";
const res = await evaluate({
  state: "A palette: 1. Open Editor [Apps] aliases: code, vscode, ide — launch. 2. Deploy [Ops] aliases: ship, release, deploy — launch. Current query: \"de\". Pick the ONE target that best matches.",
  questions: {
    pick: jev.choice(["Open Editor", "Deploy"], "Which launch target is the best match?"),
  },
});
console.log(JSON.stringify(res.answers, null, 2));
'

Without TYPESAFE_API_KEY this uses the deterministic mock; set the key to hit live Jev.
