Apply natural-language codebooks to tables with resumable Jev annotation.

Automated README summary

Automatically summarized from the README on 25 Sept 2026; not a run by jevbooks. Run instructions and author-reported outcomes still need verification.

What it is

jcol is a CLI and Python API that applies natural-language codebooks to tables, turning each definition into a column of judgments from Jev. It is for analysts coding text data with resumable runs, exports, and label evaluation.

How it uses Jev

Each codebook definition is sent to Jev as a question over the row's declared inputs. Jev returns a value and confidence per variable, written as output columns; binary gives a probability, category a chosen label, scale a numeric position.

Primitives:choicescore

Technique worth stealing

Checkpoint successful cells in a SQLite project so rerunning the same command resumes only missing cells.

Try it

uv tool install jev-col, then jcol run data.parquet --codebook codebook.json -o coded.parquet

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.
