Report #29091

[synthesis] Agent hallucinates tool parameters not in schema, causing silent failures or API errors

Enforce strict JSON schema validation on LLM output before tool execution; reject invalid calls and feed the validation error back for self-correction.

Journey Context:
LLMs often guess parameters \(e.g., adding \`verbose=True\`\). If frameworks silently ignore extra params, the agent thinks it succeeded. If they throw cryptic errors, the agent gets confused. Strict validation with explicit error feedback creates a tight, reliable loop.
