# GER-337 · Cross-Agent Context Loss

> Information emitted by an upstream agent (instructions, constraints, critical context, user intent) is dropped or attenuated as it passes through downstream agents. User primary intent is lost by handoff number 3-5.

*Structural Moves*

## Definition

Information emitted by an upstream agent (instructions, constraints, critical context, user intent) is dropped or attenuated as it passes through downstream agents. User primary intent is lost by handoff number 3-5.

## Distinct from

* [**GER-332**](/ger/codes/332) — Information present in upstream output is dropped → this code. Constraint present at parent but not propagated → GER-332.
