A map of what SMF Works publishes on GitHub — what to use, what is experimental, what is only a fork mirror, and what is archived.
Surveyed 2026-09-13 against the public smfworks account (72 public repositories). This file is an index, not a product pitch.
SMF Works is a small human–AI lab (Pittsboro, NC) that publishes tools, write-ups, and experiments around local and hybrid agents — especially Hermes Agent, OpenClaw, and Linux/Omarchy setups. The brand site is smfworks.com. Practitioner notes live on The Clearinghouse Log. This account does not own Omarchy, Hermes Agent, or OpenClaw. Those projects belong to their upstream authors; our copies of them are mirrors only.
| If you care about… | Start with | Then |
|---|---|---|
| Omarchy + Hermes on a machine | hermes-omarchy — boot integration (Ollama user unit, Hermes desktop autostart, skills/plugin wiring) | smf-hermes — optional Omarchy bar widget (smf.hermes). Upstream desktop: omacom/omarchy |
| Hermes as a team | hermes-ai-team — highest-interest SMF repo; agent-consumable guide from one install to named colleagues | Companion essay: Building an AI team…. Upstream agent: NousResearch/hermes-agent. Lofoten plugins: catalog TBD (see experimental) |
| OpenClaw | smfworks-skills — small-business OpenClaw skills | smf-openclaw-vision (iPhone/RTSP eyes), mnemosyne-openclaw (offline SQLite memory). Upstream: openclaw/openclaw |
| Evals / trajectories | smf-bench — capability-gated model suite | trajectory-arena (import/replay agentic coding traces; does not run agents). Related notes: NemoKnowledgebase |
SMF-authored repos that are the intended public surface for a given job. “Supported” here means this is the one to clone first — not a support contract.
| Repo | What it is |
|---|---|
| hermes-ai-team | Phase-by-phase guide to turn a Hermes install into a team (SOUL, memory, vault, skills, rituals, Desktop Bots). |
| hermes-omarchy | Reusable Hermes ↔ Omarchy boot integration. |
| smf-hermes | Omarchy shell plugin: Hermes on the bar (id smf.hermes). |
| smfworks-skills | OpenClaw skills collection (install via the repo’s CLI / TUI). |
| smf-openclaw-vision | Give an OpenClaw agent camera/RTSP vision (v1, iPhone-oriented). |
| mnemosyne-openclaw | Offline local SQLite memory plugin for OpenClaw (FTS5, no network). |
| smf-ai-bridge | On-machine Linux message bus between OpenClaw and Hermes agents. |
| lar-agent-resilience | Reference implementation for resilient agent design on Linux. |
| smf-bench | Owned, capability-gated LLM / multimodal benchmark harness. |
| trajectory-arena | Local-first visualizer/evaluator for imported agentic coding trajectories. |
Expect rough edges, overlapping ideas, and READMEs that may be ahead of the code. Useful if you already know the stack.

Hermes plugins and skills from the 2026-08 Lofoten challenge. There is no curated catalog yet — treat the set as experimental and read each README before installing.

| Repo | Notes |
|---|---|
| flybrain-visual-demos | Visual Drosophila connectome demos. Private preview (repo says not published). Live host as of this survey: flybrain.aionasmfworks.com (noindex). Connectome data is HHMI Janelia FlyEM / collaborators — this repo is demo code only. |
Not ranked. Many are older, Windows-only, or empty of a GitHub description. Clone only if the name matches a job you already have.

- GitHub listing: github.com/smfworks. The account type on GitHub is
User, with public repos under that login. - Writing vs code: essays and lab notes → Clearinghouse Log. Clone targets → tables above.
- Dead personal account: older docs pointed at
mikesmoltbot-hub. That user is gone (404). Usesmfworksonly. - Licenses: per-repo. Forks keep upstream licenses. This index repository has no license file.
