Chief of Staff unable to communicate with other bots

Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Grokbot Agents

Describe the Bug
Since this morning, my Chief of Staff assistant can’t send messages to my other assistants, like Coffee Updates. It also can’t hand off background tasks.
Last week both worked, and my 8:15 AM brief handed off to Coffee Updates normally.
Updating the app and updating the computer didn’t fix it.

Can you reset the Chief of Staff (UUID: ab156c99-bf66-4946-b7ae-41bf07ec49b9) to see whether that opens up communications again. I do not want to run a hard reset, as I am trying to avoid losing our chat history.

Steps to Reproduce
How can you reproduce this bug? We have a much better chance at fixing issues if we can reproduce them!

  1. Open Grokbot
  2. Ask Chief of Staff to delegate tasks to other bots
  3. Receive message that they cannot reach the other bots

Expected Behavior
My Chief of Staff should be able to communicate across the board with the other bots. The entire point is for it to delegate the work I assign. It currently cannot speak ot any of the bots, so they are sitting there doing nothing.

For AI issues: which model did you use?
GrokBot 0.61.0

For AI issues: add Request ID with privacy disabled
Chief of Staff UUID: ab156c99-bf66-4946-b7ae-41bf07ec49b9

Additional Information
Everything was working fine as of Friday. I did set working hours to be 8AM - 8PM M-F. Not sure if that somehow broke the communications stream over the weekend.
