# NousResearch/hermes-agent · Multiplexed profile path memoisation and state pollution

## Open now

- Nothing open on GitHub.

These items address a bug where process-global memoisation of paths and latched state (config.yaml lookups, environment bridges, TERMINAL_* flags) causes multiplexed profiles to interfere with each other depending on initialization order. The fixes resolve per-call path resolution and isolation of shared guards across profiles.

## TL;DR
