Jev + Opus 5.5 cuts daily fork cost from $110 to $4
The author breaks down how Jev scores project notes, hands simple steps to a faster model, picks recovery paths and runs focused checks, leaving Opus to do only the hard reasoning and cutting fork costs from about $110 to $4 a day.
Jev + Claude Opus 5.5... i can't understand why everyone isn't wiring this up yet the forks alone drop from about $110 a day to $4 once jev takes them over. right now it's the best way i know to run opus what jev handles: -> scores which project notes matter before the context even loads -> hands the easy steps to a faster worker -> picks a recovery path when a tool fails, so nothing retries blind -> runs the focused checks before the full test suite opus does the hard reasoning. jev chooses from options the harness already prepared and validated that's jev engineering in one line: the expensive model thinks, the cheap one decides $106 a day back on the same work is a number your manager remembers read the paper, then the full jev guide below
