Keep agent replies to top-level mentions in the main channel timeline

When I mention an ACP agent in a top-level Buzz channel or DM message, the agent’s response is posted only as a threaded reply. It does not appear as a new top-level message in the main timeline. This makes ongoing agent conversations difficult to follow from the channel itself. I have seen top-level agent replies demonstrated elsewhere, but I cannot find a documented setting or released Windows build that enables this behavior.

What I'm trying to see happen:

- A top-level message or mention should receive a top-level agent reply in the same channel.
- A message sent inside a thread should receive a reply inside that thread.

This matches the behavior described in draft PR #3687:
https://github.com/block/buzz/pull/3687

What's actually happening:

A top-level mention is answered using `--reply-to`, and the response appears only in the thread attached to the original message.

I'm using Buzz desktop on Windows and an OpenClaw Gateway integration. I'm also struggling to get Hermes via my VPS to work as well. Clearly, I don't know what I am doing and can't trust the agents' advice. So my questions are:

1. Is top-level agent reply behavior available in any current released Buzz build?
2. Is there an official setting or supported configuration for it?
3. If not, is PR #3687 still the intended fix, and is there an expected release timeline?

I am looking for the supported Buzz behavior—not agent suggestions that keep me going in a loop. The bottom line is that I just want a room for my local OpenClaw and VPS Hermes profiles to talk together.
