+# 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
