oh i know the reason. when use verbose,the buff not only contains the json struct value,the buff contains something detail about the playbook ,they are not json struct

Hi @YXY-121
Thanks for raising that issue, I was not aware about it.
The reason is exactly what you said :)

I would like to think a solution in depth, no just to solve that issue but how to set some restrictions depending on the stdout callback.

Hi @YXY-121
I want to add some breaking changes to the Executor interface which will facilitate introducing the changes I want to add to solve that issue. For that reason, I will add it to version 2.0.0.

I am about to start working on 1.2.0 where I want to release a few minor features, and as soon as I release them I am going to start working on 2.0.0.
