+# Hermes discovers MCP servers in the background.  Athena has several remote
+# servers and the Home Assistant relay can finish just after the short upstream
+# default, leaving its tools absent from the first agent turn until a manual
+# reload.  Wait long enough to build the initial tool snapshot completely;
+# completed discovery returns immediately, so this does not add a fixed delay.
