Queue Reminiscence started as a very ordinary product: replace the paper queue sheet at an arcade cabinet without turning it into reservation SaaS.

That product shipped as an MVP. Players can scan a QR code, add a display name, remove ghost entries, and keep playing. Operators can manage venues, boards, access rotation, and open/closed state. The public board keeps the social feel of marker-on-whiteboard, minus the lost pens and cursed handwriting.

I started with a simple question: if Hermes is already running GPT-5.5 as the orchestrator, does it make sense to hand the typing to a separate worker drone?

Not a magical “AI saves all tokens” kind of question. A boring operational one.

If GPT-5.5 can plan and review while another agent writes code, maybe Hermes can stretch its useful work across more tasks. Or maybe the handoff overhead eats the whole benefit. The only way to find out was to measure it.
