# NousResearch/hermes-agent · Exposing per-member live task status in group chats

## Open now

- Nothing open on GitHub.

The members share a theme: surfacing which group member (bot) is currently working. One issue notes that no groups.* JSON-RPC method exposes per-member live task status in a hosted room, one item proposes a gateway groups.tasks feature, and one concerns desktop group chats showing the working bot again. Outcomes are not established by the titles.

## TL;DR

## How this cluster was grouped

- Link evidence (`STRUCTURAL_SPANNING`): every member is connected by structural evidence: shared changed files, or a closing/superseded reference.
- Pairwise link density `0.67`: the share of member pairs that carry a link, counting a structural link in full and a relevance-only link at 0.36. `1.00` means every pair is linked.
