Smithers lets your Hermes agent take on bigger jobs and actually get them done. It splits a job into steps, runs them at the same time so it's faster, uses a cheap model for the easy parts so it costs less, redoes only the bits that flake so it's reliable, and checks with you before anything risky. Free, open, runs right alongside Hermes.
Hermes already learns skills and does tasks for you. Smithers makes those skills do more, for less, without falling over.
It does several steps at the same time instead of one after another. A job that used to take all night can finish in a fraction of the time.
It uses a cheap, fast model for the simple steps and a smart one only where it really matters, and never pays to redo work it already finished.
Big jobs actually finish. If a step trips, it tries again instead of dropping everything, so you get the whole result, not half.
Hand it bigger, multi-step jobs: research something all week, keep an eye on things, pull a report together. Not just one answer at a time.
Before it deletes, sends, or spends anything, it asks you right in your chat, on Telegram, Discord, or Slack. No nasty surprises.
Kick a job off and walk away. When it's done, the result lands back in the same chat you started it from.
Real recordings: a live Hermes agent running real Smithers workflows. One line to add it, then you just talk to your agent like always.
Ask your agent to build whole workflows and views over your actual work. Real recordings, real GitHub issues.
Smithers adds itself to Hermes so your agent can start, watch, and finish these bigger jobs. Nothing to maintain.
# Add Smithers to Hermes, once: bunx smithers-orchestrator hermes # Then just ask, from Telegram / Discord / your terminal: /smithers run "every morning, check my sites and text me a summary" /smithers ps # see what it's working on
Tell your agent what you want done. It figures out the steps.
Faster and cheaper, and it keeps going even if something hiccups.
It checks in before anything risky, and tells you when it's done.
Your agent already builds skills. A Smithers skill is one that can handle a whole multi-step job, run it faster and cheaper, and not give up halfway.
Just like you can order an Uber, put your phone in your pocket, and trust the car will still show up, Smithers gives your agent's jobs that same promise: once one starts, you can trust it'll run all the way to the finish. And if something goes wrong on the way, your agent can restart it, retry it, or fix it.
One command does all of this, right inside your Hermes folder. Curious what each piece does? Tap it.
Let your agent take on the big jobs, and actually finish them, for less.
