All community repos with 25+ stars were reviewed for obfuscated code, credential harvesting, typosquatting, supply chain attacks, crypto mining, and excessive permissions. No repos were found to be malicious. Full report: repos/security-review.md.
Five repos received WARN status (not for malicious behavior, but for patterns requiring user caution):
| Repo | Concern | Recommendation |
|---|---|---|
| swarmclawai/swarmclaw | README could not be fully audited | Inspect source before use |
| AlexAI-MCP/hermes-CCC | PowerShell install.ps1 + curl-pipe-bash installer |
Inspect install scripts before running |
| unmodeled-tyler/vessel-browser | curl-pipe-bash installer with broad scope | Download and inspect install.sh first |
| runtimenoteslabs/gladiator | Hardcoded dev DB creds, 0.0.0.0 binding without auth | Not recommended for production use without hardening |
| joeynyc/hermes-skins | README could not be fully audited | Low risk (visual themes only), but inspect before use |
General advice: For any repo with a curl ... | bash installer, download the script first and review it before executing.
This ecosystem map was compiled on 2026-04-08 by researching the Hermes Agent GitHub repository, its official documentation, the awesome-hermes-agent curated list, and comprehensive GitHub API searches across topics, names, and README references.
Filtering criteria:
- Must be specifically built for or integrated with Hermes Agent
- Created after July 22, 2025 (Hermes repo creation date) — except pre-existing tools that later added Hermes support
- Not a personal pet project or homework assignment
- Shows genuine effort and adds value to the ecosystem
- Excludes direct forks without meaningful changes
- Security-reviewed for obvious red flags
