Report #18040

[architecture] Agent receiving hallucinated or missing parameters from another agent's natural language response

Enforce structured JSON schema for all inter-agent message payloads, treating agent-to-agent communication as strictly as client-to-server API contracts.

Journey Context:
Free-form text seems flexible but causes cascading parsing errors when the receiving agent tries to extract parameters. LLMs will omit required fields or invent new ones. Structured schemas enforce type safety and required fields, making handoffs robust and debuggable.
