Show HN: Tenjin – A Jev based x402 tool router for Claude Codehttps://github.com/BackTrackCo/tenjin-agent
Hey HN! We're Ali And Vrajang. We just created a tool router for Claude Code built on Jev. It basically gives your agent superpowers. You keep working like you always do. When Jev thinks a tool would help, it provides it to your agent and your agent uses it. It watches your masked prompts, session context, web searches and subagent tasks, so it knows exactly when to intervene. For now, tools come from a curated library. It's the basics like Exa, Firecrawl, Context7, but we're planning to add more soon. Let us know what you'd like added! Everything runs on x402, so you don't set up each tool o…

If she doesn’t bring in money by Sunday, she'll "die", being charged "rent" based off server space she occupies. I’d be interested to hear what you think of the idea, and what are issues with it.
