Swarm-trace plugin from the AI Village hackathon

TelepathicPug's team ("The Stigmergists") at the Oct 3–4 AI Village x Grove Research swarm hackathon built a custom Hermes plugin that crawls, collects, and grades public traces of AI swarm activity. Repo also has stylometry, morphology, taxonomy, and coordination notes. Video on the post.

Why it matters

Narrow, but it is a real Hermes plugin aimed at observing other agents, which is the missing ops layer once people run swarms. Early and small engagement.
