genspark-ai/genoffice (created July 31, 2,216 stars, 386 forks, TypeScript, Apache-2.0) covers word processing, spreadsheets, presentations and PDF on macOS and Windows. criptogus/HermesOffice (created August 4, 417 stars) is an explicit Apache-2.0 fork with "native Hermes Agent AI" swapped in. Four days from launch to re-skinned rival. Permissively licensed AI app shells are now commodity substrate for whichever agent runtime the forker prefers, which is worth weighing before betting a workflow on either roadmap.
