View prompt
Using the JevHarness repo at https://github.com/TianyuCodings/JevHarness, invoke the jev-harness skill to draft a harness that routes <ticket type> to the right team. Ask for inputs, legal actions, examples, success criteria, and budget before writing any code. Expected output: a plan listing those items. Verify that every legal team action appears in the plan.

Clone https://github.com/TianyuCodings/JevHarness, build and preview the website with Node.js on port 8768, then report the number of archived Eval games shown on the page. Expected output: the viewer loads at localhost:8768. Verify that browsing makes no model requests and starts no games.
-
Install the Jev Harness skill in Codex
Add the jev-harness skill to Codex and use it to plan a harness for your task.

View prompt
In Codex, install the jev-harness skill from https://github.com/TianyuCodings/JevHarness and then run it on the task: route <ticket type> to the right team. Expected output: a list of clarified inputs, legal actions, examples, and success criteria. Verify that the skill is discovered before the task is sent.

Improve a harness with reliable rewards and reflection
Use reward-based evaluation and GEPA reflection to evolve a harness from full execution traces.
View prompt
Using the JevHarness skill from https://github.com/TianyuCodings/JevHarness, plan an evaluation and reflection loop for <task> with a trusted reward, a training batch, and an Eval set. Expected output: a plan naming the selection split, the reflection inputs, and how accepted proposals are checked on Eval. Verify that the plan keeps Eval separate from the reflection inputs.
How to use Jev Harness
- Check you have what it needs: Claude Code or Codex installed; Git, and Node.js for the local archive viewer; Access to Jev model calls, since plugin installation does not configure model keys.
- Open TianyuCodings/JevHarness on GitHub and read the README and license.
- Run
/plugin marketplace add https://github.com/TianyuCodings/JevHarness.gitinside Claude Code. - Run
/plugin install jev-harness@jevharness. - Run
/reload-plugins. - Run
/jev-harness:jev-harnesswith your task, and answer its questions about inputs, legal actions, examples, success criteria, and budget.
