How this item is evaluated

RepoRadar assigned abundantbeing/hermes-browser-extension a composite score of 7.9 out of 10, placing it in the Silver tier. This score combines weighted sub-signals: usefulness (35%), novelty (18%), momentum (14%), maturity (10%), open-source/build quality (7%), evidence quality (6%), workflow potential (6%), and setup ease (4%). Popularity is tracked separately at 61.0 and never affects the composite score or tier. The risk label of 'conditional' reflects inherent user-impacting hazards, not generic novelty. Items with no risk flag may still require normal code review before production use.

Risk explanation

Any page context you refresh into the side panel becomes available to the connected Hermes runtime for the duration of the session; Remote API-server mode widens the trust boundary beyond localhost, so keep it to a trusted host with a strong API key and CORS allowlist; It is intentionally read-only in v0.1, so treat it as context capture rather than browser automation when planning workflows.
