avillagran rewrites ARES (formerly omarchy-hermes) in 100% Rust; it already controls Hermes, with more modes coming and phone control via web or a native client.
pixbroker posts an "Omarchy native Futures trading terminal." built with Rust, GPUI, 120fps, ToS, Databento, Rithmic, adding "More coming soon."; the still is a dark app titled "pit" with "File", "Account", "Data", "View", and "Announcement" menus, a "Market Profile" of letter columns, a price ladder, candlestick charts, a "Time & Sales" list, and a positions row for "/ESZ26:XCME" with "Buy", "Sell", and "Flatten" buttons.
iamlukethedev says "I built an operating system where the AI agent isn’t another app. It’s part of the OS." Today, Herald OS is open source and can be installed: it is built around Hermes Agent by Nous Research, and users talk or type to Hermes to open and use apps, find and organize files, run routines and automations, build software, and understand what is on screen, approving any change first. They say native OS commands don’t need to burn model tokens. Herald OS Linux has Fedora underneath, themes can restyle the whole system, including the terminal, and it runs as a native Mac app for Apple Silicon, a PC installer from a USB stick, an Arch Linux package, or with Omarchy integration where Herald follows the theme and adds itself to the menu and keybindings. It is free, open source and MIT licensed, "still alpha, so expect rough edges", and not affiliated with Nous Research, linking iamlukethedev/Herald-OS; the still is a "Good morning, Alex." screen with a "What would you like to make happen?" box, "Plan my day", "Start a mission", and "Make a theme" buttons, a "Pick up where you left off" card with "Not now" and "Turn on" buttons, and "No missions yet" under "Active missions", beside a terminal with color swatches at a "[hermes@herald-os ~]$" prompt.
IAmMonetApp says "Building a whole website with an agent is now a loop, not a chat." They post Monet: Design Review, free for Omarchy: the agent builds the site, the user draws a box on what should change and says what, and Monet hands it to the agent and shows the fix before and after, adding "It follows your theme." In a follow-up reply they say they built this version so some 11+ year olds can have fun building websites while learning the joys of Omarchy on some old MacBooks; the still is a card headed "Draw a box. Say what should change. Your agent does it." above a Monet window with "Pick", "Capture", "Mark up", "Send", and "Check" steps, a website page reading "AI builds the first draft. Monet runs the next hundred changes." marked with boxes, a notes panel including "Name the free Omarchy edition under these buttons", and a "Send 2 notes to Claude Code →" button.
