Check delegation fit
Does subtask fall within the capabilities described for the delegate?
You need a yes/no check before handing a subtask to a specific sub-agent or worker whose tools, access, or permissions are described in text.

Use delegation-fit in TypeScript
Install with npm install jev-recipes. Requires Node.js 22.9 or newer and ES modules. Set TYPESAFE_API_KEY in your server environment for live calls, which send input to TypeSafe and use API quota. See the installation guide.
import { delegationFit } from 'jev-recipes/delegation-fit';
const result = await delegationFit({
"subtask": "Find the three most recent production incidents involving the checkout service, pull their postmortem documents from the wiki, and summarize the root causes in a short table.",
"capabilities": "Read-only access to the code repository and its git history. Can run the test suite and static analysis. No network access, no wiki or ticketing access, no production logs.",
"minConfidence": 0.8
});
console.log(result);

Limitations
- Judges fit against the capabilities as written. Abilities the delegate has but the description omits count as missing.
- Reports whether the subtask is within scope, not whether the delegate would do it well or how long it would take.
