 **Unofficial** CLI for the [TypeSafe System One API](https://docs.typesafe.ai/api) (Jev) — designed for AI agents and anything that can execute a process.
 
 Jev is TypeSafe's System One model: send `state` + typed questions, get structured answers (`noul`/`choice`/`score` with probabilities + confidence) your code can branch on. No text generation, no parsing.

 ## Why a CLI when SDKs exist?
 
-The SDKs cover in-process calls. This CLI covers everything with a subprocess:
-
 - **Shell composability** — pipes, `jq`, JSONL batch, documented exit codes
 - **Question files as reviewable artifacts** — one JSON file holds questions; `lint` validates structure without spending API calls
 - **Structured state** — `--state-format json` preserves objects/arrays end to end
