When you use register with find the result is a list in files.
You can check the content of out_directories with
- debug: var=out_directories
- debug: var="{{ item }}"
Var takes the variable and not the content of the variable, correct use
is var=item.
with_items: "{{ out_directories }}"
Register with find, the result is list of dictionaries in
out_directories.files, so you'll need to write it like this
- debug: var=item.path
with_items: "{{ out_directories.files }}"
