# dzhng/jevgrep

> A CLI for coding agents that finds relevant files and source excerpts in a repository from a question about code behavior. It uses Jev for relevance ranking and requires a Vercel AI Gateway, TypeSafe, or OpenRouter key.

## Useful for

- Find files where authentication is checked before a request handler
- Install the agent skill for Claude Code or Codex via jg skill
- Check provider and key configuration with jg doctor

## Why it’s here

- 0 stars so far today, about 127 expected by the end of the day.
- The spike has held for 2 days in a row — not a one-off blip.
- The repository is 1 day old and already has 145 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
- Top new repositories this week: #85.
- About 43 forks a day — people are taking the code.

## Star trust

Star growth looks organic.

Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer.

## Numbers

- Forks: 9
- Issues and pull requests: 1
- Watchers: 0
- Average over the last week: 137 per day
- Usual pace: too little history (under two weeks)
- Stars in the last hour (measured): 24
- Latest release: v0.1.0 (2026-09-26)

   A command-line tool for semantic code search: given a natural-language description, it finds files and line ranges using an LLM instead of embeddings or an index. Works like grep, but by meaning.

Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score.
Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast.
Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
