# NousResearch/hermes-agent · Bedrock Converse handling of sealed or redacted reasoning across models

## Open now

- Nothing open on GitHub.

These items concern Bedrock Converse calls and sealed or redacted reasoning content, including a bug report about agent-loop calls skipping an earlier recovery mechanism during GPT-to-Claude fallback. Two fix-oriented pull requests address recovering redacted reasoning and avoiding replaying another model's sealed reasoning.

## TL;DR

## Maintainer resolution verdict

- Internal-tracker verdict over this cluster's issue members: `resolved` · deciding PR(s): `pr-142139`. This is distinct from the fix status above. Weigh it yourself.

## 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evidence (`STRUCTURAL_SPANNING`): every member is connected by structural evidence: shared changed files, or a closing/superseded reference.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 `0.50`: 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.
