Report #31002

[synthesis] Catastrophic destructive tool calls from hallucinated or unverified parameters

Enforce strict schema validation on tool inputs at the orchestrator level and require explicit path-safety checks for destructive actions \(write, delete, execute\) before execution.

Journey Context:
Agents prioritize completing the tool call over validating the inputs. If a file path or variable isn't in context, the LLM will hallucinate a plausible-looking one. Sandboxing helps, but input validation prevents the LLM from even attempting the bad call, saving tokens and preventing irreversible state corruption.
