# NousResearch/hermes-agent · Coalesce dashboard reads to prevent worker exhaustion

## Open now

- Nothing open on GitHub.

Duplicate or burst reads from the dashboard (profile and kanban board endpoints) exhaust HTTP workers and cause remote Desktop connection timeouts. The fix coalesces identical expensive reads before worker admission to reduce load.
