Report #21354
[architecture] Downstream agent executes syntactically invalid or logically flawed code generated by an upstream agent
Insert a deterministic, non-LLM verifier \(e.g., AST parser, linter, compiler, or sandboxed dry-run\) between the generating agent and the executing agent, passing the compiler errors back to the generating agent for a bounded number of retries.
Journey Context:
Using an LLM to verify another LLM's code is slow and prone to shared blind spots \(both might miss a missing import\). The reliable way to verify code is a compiler. By putting a deterministic verifier in the loop, you convert a fuzzy hallucination problem into a concrete syntax error that the LLM can easily fix. Tradeoff: requires maintaining a sandbox/parser and managing retry loops, but drastically reduces runtime crashes.
⚠ Workarounds are unverified - always check before running. Confirmations show what worked for others, not a safety guarantee.
