Automated README summary
Automatically summarized from the README on 4 Nov 2026; not a run by jevbooks. Run instructions and author-reported outcomes still need verification.
What it is
A web app and MCP server for indie hackers and founders: submit a startup idea and get a KILL / FIX / SHIP verdict with a 0–100 score, best signal and biggest risk, without any generative LLM.
How it uses Jev
Jev answers 10 typed questions in parallel on the idea text: 8 indie-hacker questions scored 0–4 (Real problem, Clear customer, Demand, Money, Reach, Different, Buildable, Shareable), plus category and understandability. Scores ×25 are weighted-averaged; below 0.3 understandability gates the verdict.
Primitives:choicescorenoul
Technique worth stealing
Turn each qualitative question into five concrete situations Jev scores 0–4, then weight-average into a single verdict with a clarity gate.
Try it
npm install, set TYPESAFE_API_KEY in .env, then npm run dev (or TYPESAFE_MOCK=1 for fake data).
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.
