Jev ecosystem explodes overnight: browser-use's jev-ultrafast hits ~8k stars, books flights in 7.1s
udmrzn · x · 2026-09-20
Jev-related GitHub repos proliferated overnight, and a Japanese dev roundup highlights the top-starred projects per category, alongside news that SAM3.1 is now API-accessible and Jev is usable via OpenRouter (no more waitlist). Notable projects:
- jev-ultrafast (by browser-use, 7.9k stars): a browser agent with a dynamic, indexed action space — Jev picks an operation and target element from a generated element table, and a small LLM is only invoked for TYPETEXT. Demo: Zurich → London booked on Google Flights in 7.1 seconds including loading waits.
- fast-jev-compaction (2.8k stars): prunes unnecessary tool calls and results from Claude Code session history while keeping retained conversation text verbatim.
- typesafe-computer-use (203 stars): macOS-only automation via OCR and accessibility info.
- mobile-jev (103 stars): controls Android devices via Mobilerun.
- jev-voice-browser (40 stars): extracts intent from speech and drives web pages via Playwright.
