What's Wrong?

I keep getting this - "No task found with ID" when subagent finished work. Unlike in other issues, this is only ever happens when I have one subagent, no parallel ones.

What Should Happen?

This error should not be shown and main agent should correctly receive output from subagent.

Error Messages/Logs

● Task Output ac3db3a
  ⎿  Error: No task found with ID: ac3db3a

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Ask agent to use subagent (in a sequence, not parallel)
  2. Eventually you will get this error

This is random and maybe happens in one in 10 runs? This does waste a lot of tokens, because once this starts happening, all context used by subagent is lost and this wastes my quota.
