# Story 321: WhatsApp htop adaptation for no-edit platforms

## User Story

As a project owner using WhatsApp, I want the htop command to work even though WhatsApp doesn't support message editing, so that I can monitor system load from any chat platform.

## Acceptance Criteria

- [ ] htop on WhatsApp sends a new message each update instead of editing
- [ ] Rate-limited to avoid spamming (e.g. one message per 15 seconds instead of every 5)
- [ ] Each new message replaces the previous one visually (includes a 'last updated' timestamp)
- [ ] htop stop still works to cancel the loop
- [ ] ChatTransport trait has a supports_editing() method so htop can adapt its behavior per platform

## Out of Scope

- TBD
