Describe the Bug

i updated, found where the agents are now, however, when i click on one it just keeps thinking with a message that says “taking a little while”

i need all of my chat histories restored, it’s vital to my project

yes i can reproduce it - when i click on a past agent i just see a message that says “taking a little while”

i should be able to access past agent/chat histories
