Happier Queue Gets Backed Up

[fny]

Summary

After a background task ran, messages from Happier "backed up." Claude notified me that he would respond when the task was done, then while he presumably worked, I could send another message. The first message I sent yielded no response. The second message I sent yielded a response to my prior message, and this chain continued.

Attached are logs I tailed from the message sending response delays. I'm not sure where to look for what happened after the background task ran.
