jev-model-routing skillA

jev-model-routing is agent-read markdown (skill) from kerpopule/hermes-jev-skills: Use to pick the cheapest model that is good enough for a turn — choosing a model, delegating a sub-task to a sub-agent, cutting model spend, or setting up and tuning Jev routing pools..

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

What the file says

# Model routing with Jev

Jev reads a turn and answers three questions in one ~0.4 s request: how hard is it, what kind of work is it, and would a mistake be costly. Code then walks your pool for that tier and specialty and takes the first model that fits (images, context size). You do not pick models by feel; you ask.

## On Hermes it is automatic

With the `hermes-jev` plugin enabled, each fresh user turn is routed once, before the first model call. Tool-loop follow-ups reuse that decision. Switches, per profile:

```
/jev                    status
/jev routing shadow     decide and log, but do not switch (start here)
/jev routing on         switch models
/jev routing off
/jev notice on          show "[Jev] medium · coding → kimi-k2.7-code · confidence 0.97" on routed replies
```

A plugin can swap the model, not the provider connection. On OpenRouter that still means every vendor (DeepSeek, GLM, Kimi, MiniMax, Grok, Qwen, Gemini, GPT). If you run `/model` yourself, your choice wins and Jev stays out of the way.

## Asking directly (any agent)

Before delegating a task or spawning a sub-agent, ask which model should get it:

```bash
…

How to install

Latest version
mdr add kerpopule/hermes-jev-skills/jev-model-routing@v0.1.0
Exact content
mdr add kerpopule/hermes-jev-skills/jev-model-routing@sha256:567d4aca453820ee

Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
