Winnow
Filter tool output while keeping it recoverable
How this project uses Jev
- Input
- Read, Bash, and Grep output blocks
- Jev decides
- Whether content is still relevant to the task
- Code executes
- Keep relevant or uncertain content; cache hidden originals
EDITOR’S NOTES
Where to start
Who it is for
For agent-workflow developers processing large file, command and search outputs.
Setup requirements
Confirm the tool-output integration point and decision backend. The project supports other backends, so installing Winnow does not by itself establish that Jev is being used.
Suggested first experiment
Use output containing relevant, irrelevant and uncertain content. Inspect the filtering result, then try retrieving the hidden original text.
Before adopting
Check whether failures preserve the original output and whether hidden content can be recalled. Tune thresholds to the task; reduced text volume alone is not a quality measure.
Editorial guidance based on linked sources; not an independent runtime test.
Evidence and limitations
Original output is retained when errors are detected. Other evaluation backends are supported. Results depend on the task and thresholds; not independently tested here.
This project has not been run independently here. Author-reported results are not independently verified results.
