I don't know what is smart-tab and don't know if it works with helm.

Depend which completion you want; helm handle well elisp completion, for
tab to work use:

(define-key lisp-interaction-mode-map [remap indent-for-tab-command] 'helm-lisp-completion-at-point-or-indent)
(define-key emacs-lisp-mode-map       [remap indent-for-tab-command] 'helm-lisp-completion-at-point-or-indent)

first hit on TAB will indent your code, second hit (fast [1]) will
complete.
[1] You can set this delay, see `helm-lisp-completion-or-indent-delay'.

Type "rg mob pu" (notice the spaces)
Which give me here two candidate:
org-mobile-pull/push
You can type also this:
"rg mob pu !sh"
Which will remove the org-mobile-push candidate.
