Overview
jg takes a natural-language question about a repository and prints relevant files, reading leads and verbatim source excerpts with line references to stdout. It uses the Jev model, called through a provider key, to judge relevance across folders, files and declarations. A bundled skill, installed with `jg skill`, teaches coding agents such as Claude Code, Codex and OpenCode to call it.
Who it is for: Developers running coding agents on unfamiliar codebases
Strengths
- Installs an agent skill for Claude Code, Codex and OpenCode with one command
- Respects ignore files and skips hidden, binary and .env files by default
- No Python, Bun or ripgrep install needed; runs on Node 22+
- Published eval: 8/10 SWE-bench tasks solved with and without it, Sol cost down 28.6%
Weaknesses
- Source content is sent to the chosen provider; secret filtering is heuristic, not redaction
- Needs a provider key for Vercel AI Gateway, TypeSafe, OpenRouter or OpenCode Zen
- Benchmark covers ten Python tasks; total cost including Jev fell 25.8%, no speed gain claimed
- Declaration parsing covers only Python, TS/JS, Go and Rust; other text uses a fallback
What it needs
- no GPU
- Needs Node.js 22+, API key for Vercel AI Gateway, TypeSafe, OpenRouter or OpenCode Zen
- Models: Jev
