oh-my-hermes
oh-my-hermes (OMH) is an add-on for Nous Research's Hermes Agent. Hermes stays the natural-language surface; OMH sits above its native skills, frames each request as a capability, picks a workflow and evidence gates, and runs the native skills inside that path. Workflows cover planning, research, creation, coding handoffs, operations and project memory.
A recurring theme is honesty about what happened: OMH records explicit evidence boundaries and says it never hides a coding executor behind Hermes. The omh CLI handles setup, update and doctor checks, and omh model sets the head model and effort per work category, with a skill for onboarding new model families.
Installation is via a shell script, Homebrew, Bun, npm or a Hermes skill tap, followed by a required omh setup. It is only relevant if you already use Hermes Agent, and the README is long, with many concepts to absorb.
