Automated README summary
Automatically summarized from the README on 20 Sept 2026; not a run by jevbooks. Run instructions and author-reported outcomes still need verification.
What it is
A benchmark racing Jev, TypeSafe's System One decision model, against six general-purpose LLMs on Snake. Each player gets sixty seconds and its own board; the repo measures decisions per minute and cost per point.
How it uses Jev
Jev answers Choice questions about the Snake board state, returning the option, a probability per option, and a confidence. The chosen option is the move. The repo also uses output_shape.py to probe how output tokens scale with question shape.
Primitives:choice
Technique worth stealing
Fix the answer space in the question so output size is constant and no parsing is needed.

Model judgments from README excerpts
Project signals use repository metadata, an existing summary and the first 700 README characters, not the full project. “Not found” means not detected in that material; it does not establish absence. These are the original judgments with recorded models and dates, not source audits or run results.

Evidence
These signals use repository metadata, an existing summary and at most 700 cleaned README characters. ≥ 0.60 means reported in that excerpt; ≤ 0.40 means not found there. The middle band is inconclusive. None is a source-code audit or a test result. The runnable-tool question excludes research experiments; the recommendation question asks for a learning shortlist, not a quality verdict.
