A developer describes spending six weeks debugging a multi-agent AI system in which each handoff between the planner and the executor quietly lost small amounts of information. The planner produced a clean, well-structured plan and the executor followed it step by step, yet errors accumulated invisibly because every intermediate step looked correct in the trace. The account is resonating with engineers building agent systems, who recognise how hard these subtle degradation bugs are to diagnose.
Why now: Frustration with subtle information loss in multi-agent AI pipelines is a widely shared experience among developers right now.

- I spent six weeks debugging a handoff that looked perfect in the trace. The planner produced a clean, well-structured plan. The executor followed it step by step. And every handoff between them lost a little bit of truth. Not enough to fail. Just enough to make the system… · hackaday@www.urbanmind.net · 4
