What it does
Jev Social is a local research agent for social networks. At each step the Jev model picks one operation from an allowlist: search, open a specific post or profile, read comments, download a TikTok video when explicitly requested, or finish. The local `socai CLI` runs the chosen operation in your real Chrome that is already signed in. Every operation is read-only. After each step the choice list is rebuilt from captured posts, comments and media or from an explicit failure state. A history of chosen operations is kept and checkpoints live in `~/.jev-social`, so an interrupted run can resume. The result is a report where each finding links to its source. A separate agent skill pins the Jev Social CLI release, preserves the read-only and login-gate boundaries and returns source links without raw run JSON. By default decisions use OpenRouter with the user's own key.
Who it is for. Marketers and market researchers who need a breakdown of public posts and comments on Instagram, TikTok and LinkedIn with checkable links.
Good fit when
- Finding handmade products on Instagram with posts and links to primary sources
- Comparing complaints about two brands in TikTok comments
- A research run broke off and has to resume from a checkpoint
- The agent needs a report with a history of every chosen operation for review
Not a fit when
- You want bulk collection or login bypass: the tool is read-only inside your session
- You need platforms beyond Instagram, TikTok and LinkedIn
- Sending post text to an external model is forbidden: decisions go through OpenRouter
Example request
Find handmade ceramics on Instagram and build a report on three posts with source linksLimitations
- Node 22 or newer and a Chrome signed in to the network are required. On Linux `socai CLI` is installed separately from source and put on `PATH` or `SOCAI_BIN`.
- Decision requests carry the research goal, action labels, source URLs and short visible-text excerpts. By default they go to OpenRouter and need its key.
- Jev Social does not read the cookie store directly, but `socai CLI` uses the Chrome profile you selected. For sensitive work use a separate profile or a test account.
- There is no automatic cleanup: checkpoints and downloaded media are removed by hand. Platform terms for reading and downloading remain your responsibility.
How to disable. Stop the run and delete the `~/.jev-social` folder with checkpoints, plus the data and media `socai CLI` stored. The skill is removed like any skills folder.
FAQ
How do I start Jev Social?
Run `npx github:socai-io/jev-social#v0.1.13 onboard` and then `npx github:socai-io/jev-social#v0.1.13`. Node 22 or newer and a Chrome signed in to the network are required.
What does Jev Social do with my account?
It reads posts, profiles and comments in your Chrome session and never writes or posts. The app does not copy cookies, and `socai CLI` uses the profile.
Where does the data go?
Decision requests with the research goal and short text excerpts go to OpenRouter. There is no analytics endpoint of its own, and `socai CLI` telemetry is off through `SOCAI_TELEMETRY=0`.
Can it download videos?
Yes, TikTok only and only when you explicitly ask. Everything else is limited to search and reading.
How do I resume an interrupted run?
Checkpoints live in `~/.jev-social` or the directory from `JEV_SOCIAL_HOME`. A new start continues from the last one and the operation history is kept.

README in short
The README presents Jev Social as browser-grounded social research. It then covers the `npx` start, the decide-execute-verify layers, read-only boundaries, privacy and telemetry notes, sample reports with timings and details of the separate agent skill.
