Getting the below error in Play-2

FAILED! => {"msg": "The task includes an option with an undefined variable. 
The error was: 'command_result' is undefined\n\nThe error appears to be in 

Here is the updated playbook

- name: Play 1 
  hosts: localhost 
  tasks: 
   - name: "Collect Output" 
     command: ls -ltr * 
     register: command_result 

   - set_fact: 
       command_result: "{{ command_result }}" 

- name: Play 2 
  hosts: remotehost 
  tasks: 
   - shell: "~/rollback.sh {{ Number }} '{{ InstallDir }}' 
'{{ command_result.stdout  }}' > ~/rollback.log"
