Overview

From the repository's own README, as read at the audited commit. Badges and raw HTML are left out.

An MCP server that gives your coding agent fifteen judgment tools backed by TypeSafe's Jev model. The agent hands a tool some evidence and a question it can enumerate: is this claim supported, is this page safe to read, which of these fil

Questions

What is the jev-judge-mcp MCP server?

Typed judgment tools for MCP agents. TypeSafe's Jev model as verify, screen, find, classify, rerank, decide, compare, extract, review, gate, and score: the model judges, policy decides auto, review, or escalate.

What tools does jev-judge-mcp expose?

1 in total: 1 read-only, 0 that write, and 0 that can delete or overwrite. Every one is listed on this page with its risk.

Is jev-judge-mcp safe to connect to an agent?

No — not without reading the findings first. The audit graded it F (29/100) and found 8 critical or high issues in the source. Each one is listed on this page with the file and line it is on.

What credentials does jev-judge-mcp need?

It reads API_KEY, STUB_SECRET and TYPESAFE_API_KEY from the environment. Give it a token scoped to the least it needs — an agent that can be talked into calling a tool can be talked into calling it with your credentials.

How does jev-judge-mcp run?

It speaks stdio and streamable-http, so it runs as a local process your client starts. It is published on PyPI as jev-judge-mcp.

How current is this page?

The grade is for one exact copy of the source (97f50ea28b47), read on 2026-10-08. The repository is watched and re-audited when it changes.
