astron-agent vs oh-my-hermes
astron-agent is much bigger: 9.0k stars against 2.4k. Over the days we have tracked them astron-agent moved +5.4% and oh-my-hermes +161.8%, so oh-my-hermes is growing faster right now.
oh-my-hermes leads on context depth and noise control. astron-agent does not take any axis by a clear margin.
Stars and commit dates come from our own daily tracking. The six axes are read off each project's documentation by our review pipeline, so they describe what a project says about itself, not what we measured in its code.
Where they stand today
Enterprise-grade agentic workflow platform with built-in RPA and high-availability focus for production deployments, unlike many prototyping-focused workflow engines.

Six axes, head to head
Each axis runs 0 to 5. The label under a score is what that project's own docs claim, not a category average.
| Axis | astron-agent | oh-my-hermes |
|---|---|---|
Context depth How much of your codebase it sees before it answers: the open diff, the diff plus related files, or the whole repository. | ●●●●● Diff only | ●●●●● Diff + related files |
Noise control How it keeps output volume down — severity thresholds, deduplication, incremental runs over new commits only. | ●●●●● No explicit controls | ●●●●● Evidence gates |
Customization How far it bends to your team: custom rules, prompts, style guides, per-path config. | ●●●●● Custom extensions supported | ●●●●● Configurable workflows |
Privacy Whether your code stays on your own infrastructure: fully local, self-hostable, or cloud API only. | ●●●●● Self-hostable | ●●●●● Self-hostable |
Model freedom Whether you can point it at any provider, or it is wired to one. | ●●●●● Bring-your-own models | ●●●●● Bring your own key |
Setup ease What it takes to get a first useful run out of it. | ●●●●● Docker quick start | ●●●●● One-command setup |
Which one to pick
Pick astron-agent if…
Enterprise-grade — pick Astron when you need a self-hostable, high-availability agent platform with model management, RPA integration, and extensible integrations for production use.
Pick oh-my-hermes if…
Local-first control plane — pick OMH when you want an installable, evidence-first workflow catalog and gating layer for Hermes that keeps execution ownership explicit and configurable.
- Context depth: Diff + related files (3/5 against 1/5)
- Noise control: Evidence gates (4/5 against 1/5)
