# NousResearch/hermes-agent · Webapp requests to a still-starting profile returning internal error

## Open now

- Nothing open on GitHub.

The members concern a webapp frame that names a profile which is still starting, reported as producing an "internal error" (AttributeError). Two pull requests propose having the webapp wait for the profile, one specifically doing so off the serial lane; the titles do not show whether either has been merged or whether the problem is closed.

## TL;DR

- 3 member(s): 0 open issue(s), 1 closed issue(s), 0 open PR(s), 1 merged PR(s), 1 PR(s) closed without merging.
- A fix was merged to main in PR #145110. Verify it addresses your case.
- **Recommended:** read PR #145110 (and any competing PRs below) before filing. Confirm the merged change covers your symptom.

## Maintainer resolution verdict

- Internal-tracker verdict over this cluster's issue members: `resolved` · deciding PR(s): `pr-145110`. 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evidence (`STRUCTURAL_SPANNING`): every member is connected by structural evidence: shared changed files, or a closing/superseded reference.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 `1.00`: 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.
