Claude Code mod: Jev answers 8 yes/no questions per auto-mode tool call, then the mod allows, denies, or defers to the built-in classifier.

What it is

Claude Code mod that puts Jev in front of the auto-mode classifier: one request with eight yes/no questions per tool call, then allow (plausibly serves the request, every risk check low), deny (risky and unrequested), or defer to the built-in classifier.

What it does: Shell-aware prefilter parses commands the way a shell would and blocklists destructive / exfil shapes; Jev decides the rest with calibrated thresholds.

Why it belongs in the showcase: Clean allow / deny / defer split for tool-call guardrails, with author-published thresholds and an eval corpus you can inspect.

Caveats: Author says 7,860 labeled calls and ~2× faster than the built-in classifier on the calls it decides — author-reported; not a sandbox replacement.

Evidence

Public MIT README; allow / deny / defer thresholds plus a shell-aware blocklist in front of Jev. Author says evaluated on 7,860 labeled tool calls.

Caveats

  • Author says 7,860 labeled tool calls and a sealed test split — author-reported, not independently audited
  • Defers undecided calls to Claude Code's built-in classifier; a second lock, not a sandbox
  • Hosted Jev sees recent messages and the tool call; README says secret-bearing calls are blocked locally
