My connected computer shows connected and authorized. Existing tasks can be listed/read, and ordinary chat works, but creating a new computer task or sending work to an existing executor fails with “Something went wrong.” Even a minimal diagnostic task fails before admission and before opening any files.
Affected work: preparing accounting upload files and saving generated photos to my Desktop. These actions have not completed. Voice requests also sometimes return an uncertain delivery result.
Please investigate the task-start/dispatch service and advise how to restore reliable task execution without disrupting existing work.
