Use when unsure which of many installed skills applies to a request, if any, or when asked to make skill loading cheaper or more accurate. Jev ranks the whole catalog and may say no skill is needed.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Skill selection with Jev

Two round trips, about 0.5 s on a warm connection (this was ~1.2 s before the connections were pooled — every call used to open a new TLS session). The first round trip ranks every skill against the turn: the catalog is cut into batches of 120 that are asked **side by side**, so a 377-skill catalog is four requests sent at once and a 960-skill one is eight, all landing in the time of the slowest. The second round trip is one request: it reads the top five properly, judges each on its own, and may reject them all. Wall clock and billed requests are not the same number, and it is the requests you pay for: reckon on `ceil(skills / 120) + 1` per turn that reaches Jev. A turn that nothing in the catalog comes close to ends after the first request. Small talk and ordinary turns come back with no skill. Reading the skill folders is extra: about 0.15 s for 460 skills.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add kerpopule/hermes-jev-skills/jev-skill-select@sha256:a73a84acad69d3be

The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.1.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
