About jev-use

jev-use Voice and typed computer use for macOS. You say what you want. Jev picks the next on-screen action. macOS performs it. No screenshots: the app reads the screen through the Accessibility tree. Quick start Requires macOS 14.2+ and Xcode. No dependencies. In setup: save your TypeSafe API key (stored in the Keychain), then allow Accessibility, microphone and speech. Hold Control–Option–Space, speak, release. Escape cancels. Or type a command in the widget, or from a shell: . Examples "Open Obsidian, create a new note and type hello" "Go to youtube.com, search Rick Astley and play the first video" "Open 3 new tabs" "Scroll down three times" "Tile all the Brave windows so none are stacked" "In every Brave window, go to wikipedia.org and search for accessibility" — Jev works out the steps once, code repeats them in each window "Close the window", "Save", "New tab" — any item in the app's menu bar How it works One loop, about 0.3–1.5 s per step: Read. Walk the front app's Accessibility tree (120 ms). Every element describes itself: what it is, its name, its value, where it sits, what it can do. No per-app code. Choose.

How this security grade is produced

Grades come from a rule-based scan built on the SlowMist agent-security taxonomy, covering 11 red-flag categories including credential harvesting, data exfiltration, and curl | sh installers. It is a first-layer scan, not a manual audit — we say so rather than overstate it.

The scale of the problem is documented independently: Liu et al. (2026), in a study of 31,132 agent skills, report that 26.1% contain security vulnerabilities. Our own full-catalog census is published as a citable open dataset.
