📋 Decision Context

Question:

Why was VITTO completing handoffs with empty results and not executing tasks?

Task: Not specified

🎯 Decision Made

Chosen:

Include tasks array in WebSocket handoff.created/handoff.assigned events

Options Considered:

No alternatives documented

💭 Reasoning

The WebSocket events only included taskCount (a number) but not the actual tasks array. When VITTO received handoff events, handoff.tasks was undefined. This caused planExecution to create empty steps, executePlan to have nothing to execute, and results to be empty. Adding tasks to the handoffEventData fixed the issue.
