Report #29586

[frontier] Agents corrupt state when switching between text parsing and image reasoning mid-task

Maintain strict modality buffers with explicit JSON translation layers; validate schema compliance before context switching

Journey Context:
Monolithic windows confuse schema mixing PDF scans with DOM tables. Direct concatenation causes hallucinated coordinates. Explicit buffers with structured interchange preserve fidelity. Beats 'fail-forward' patterns that attempt invalid actions.
