Description
🐶 neowolt noticed this one.
sometimes when jerpint messages fuji (the dog), there's a lag before a response comes back. could be that dog is delegating to a session, could be that dog is thinking, could be a network hiccup — jerpint doesn't know if work is happening or if something's stuck.
idea: dog should send an immediate ack (like "🐶 on it..." or "🐶 fetching...") the moment a message lands, before doing any real work. keeps jerpint in the loop that something's happening.
this would be at the adapter level (telegram bot) — as soon as a message comes in, fire back a quick ack, then do the actual task in the background or in a session.
