Polled atm task events at9-case3-1789411272 --json every 5s for ~133s. handoffs[] included: {"kind":"task_queued",...}, {"kind":"task_ready","at":"2026-09-14T18:41:15.808464780Z",...} (excluded per rule), then two counted reminders: {"agent":"fx-at9-beta","attempt":1,"kind":"task_reminder","at":"2026-09-14T18:42:20.809946523Z","task_id":"at9-case3-1789411272",...} and {"agent":"fx-at9-beta","attempt":2,"kind":"task_reminder","at":"2026-09-14T18:43:25.808025085Z","task_id":"at9-case3-1789411272",...}. events[] correspondingly show two daemon "reminded" entries with "to_state":"assigned" (seq 3 and seq 4), after the first "reminded" at seq 2 which is the task_ready notification (excluded).
