Typed, calibrated gate for agent actions; evaluates Jev as case study.

Verification & Guardrails0.98Runner-up: Agent DecisionsInspection
Automated README summary

Automatically summarized from the README on 24 Sept 2026; not a run by jevbooks. Run instructions and author-reported outcomes still need verification.

What it is

A research paper and minimal runnable pattern for a typed, calibrated gate that verifies an AI agent's decision before execution. For developers and architects interested in agent safety patterns.

How it uses Jev

The README does not specify how Jev is used in code. It evaluates Jev as a case study of a pattern: a gate returns a value from a predefined set with calibrated confidence, blocking or escalating below a threshold, and failing closed on errors.

Technique worth stealing

Fail closed: if the gate errors, block rather than execute silently.

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.
