Faster Agent Tool Calls

John says Opus 5.5 with JEV makes his agents noticeably faster. He uses JEV for tool calls and lets Opus decide when it is confident enough to act.

Opus 5.5 + JEV is making my agents noticeably faster. I’m using JEV for tool calls and letting Opus decide when it’s confident enough to act. Less schema overhead. Fewer tokens. Faster tool calls. Same agent. Less context. Less waiting. This feels like a cheat code for agent infrastructure.
