Report #30003

[frontier] Sequential tool calls causing high latency

Use DAG-based tool execution where independent tools run in parallel; declare dependencies explicitly in the tool graph to maximize concurrency.

Journey Context:
Calling tools one-by-one wastes time when they have no dependencies \(e.g., fetching weather and stock price\). Modern agent frameworks support parallel tool execution via async/await or explicit dependency graphs. The fix requires modeling tools as a DAG, not a list, and using structured output to batch requests where possible.
