[architecture] Agents hallucinating parameters when parsing free-form natural language messages from other agents

Enforce structured JSON schemas \(like function/tool calling interfaces\) for all inter-agent messages instead of natural language strings.

Journey Context:
LLMs are great at generating natural language, but parsing it reliably for downstream logic is brittle. If Agent A tells Agent B 'I found 3 bugs', Agent B might misinterpret the count. Using JSON schemas makes the contract explicit and allows programmatic validation before acting. Tradeoff: Loses the flexibility of NL, but gains the reliability required for deterministic state transitions.
