Automated README summary
Automatically summarized from the README on 31 Oct 2026; not a run by jevbooks. Run instructions and author-reported outcomes still need verification.
What it is
Footwork lets a person or agent act on a browser or desktop app, observe the result, and check what happened. It sits between an LLM's proposals and supported computer actions, refusing stale targets and verifying completion claims against evidence.
How it uses Jev
In dual mode, Jev acts as System 1: given the current observation, it proposes the next mechanical action (one Jev call), which is then dispatched through the action gate. The LLM handles escalations. Jev also powers a cheap guard for evidence-checked completions and a destructive gate.
Primitives:choicescore
Technique worth stealing
Put a cheap, calibrated Jev guard between an LLM's proposals and real computer actions, with fresh target IDs and evidence-checked completions.

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.
