# NousResearch/hermes-agent · Matrix crypto store isolation for multiplexed profiles

## Open now

- Nothing open on GitHub.

These items address a bug where multiplexed Matrix profiles share a single crypto.db due to module-level path constants, and extend per-instance settings resolution to Matrix and several other platforms. The work centers on isolating the crypto store per profile instance.
