# NousResearch/hermes-agent · Gateway reasoning projection handling for Desktop and Ink viewers

## Open now

- Nothing open on GitHub.

These items concern how the gateway handles reasoning output for local viewers such as Desktop and Ink. One reports a messaging-platform 💭 Reasoning projection being prepended to Desktop final replies, and the other two are fix-oriented changes about skipping that projection for local viewers and sending reasoning to Ink and Desktop. The exact relationship between the two fixes is not clear from the titles alone.
