# NousResearch/hermes-agent · Buzz serial receive loop for merging split message bursts

## Open now

- 0 issues, 1 PR open on GitHub.
- PR #141389: fix(buzz): declare the serial receive loop for burst merging

Members center on Buzz lacking a declared serial_receive_loop, which is reported to cause busy split text or photo bursts to become separate turns; one PR targets that declaration directly. A broader gateway ingress PR also lists Buzz bursts alongside other message-delivery cases (edits, path messages, busy media, CJK hosted prompts), so it overlaps only partly.
