A use case to evaluate

Choose a category in a large catalog

With Jev, an agent can navigate a described category tree to select a known label.

A human example

An incident needs one of hundreds of service and issue categories.

What the caller supplies

The caller supplies a meaningful hierarchy, a question and the incident description.

What happens next

Jev selects a path within a call budget or requests review.

Illustrative example, not a recorded result.

Potential value: medium

Useful when categories are semantic and the input does not already contain a usable ID.

Evidence confidence: low

The current 320-category experiment is synthetic, and a deterministic parser solved every case.

The rating describes support for this claim. It is separate from Jev's returned probability. How we assign ratings.

Evidence, including disagreement

The next test

This protocol is planned. Its outcome is not yet known.

60 natural descriptions over a fixed hierarchy, with ambiguous siblings and no category fit.

Compare against

  • Structured parser
  • Keyword rules
  • Flat selection where it fits

Measure

  • Correct leaf
  • Review rate
  • Calls per case
  • Latency

Decision after the test

Keep the hierarchy only if it beats the parser or rules on natural descriptions within the same call budget.

The report will retain inputs, question versions, every attempt and failure examples. We will update the confidence rating after reviewing the result.

Use a related Engine recipe

Recipes are implementation starting points. Their presence does not mean the protocol above has passed.
