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
Stanley is a command-line tool for checking and understanding code changes. You describe what you need in natural language; it routes the request to one bounded workflow that gathers evidence and asks Jev fixed-choice questions.
How it uses Jev
Jev routes a natural-language request across workflows using author-provided JSON routing metadata plus deterministic facts. For built-ins, Jev answers fixed-choice questions about small, size-limited pieces of the diff or evidence; Stanley's own code turns answers into flags using fixed thresholds.
Primitives:choice
Technique worth stealing
Deterministic code gathers bounded evidence and asks Jev small fixed-choice questions; code, not the model, makes decisions.
Try it
Build from source: git clone, npm ci, npm run build, then node dist/cli.js --help.
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.
