Report #31321

[architecture] Agents hallucinating parameters when passing context via free-form natural language

Use structured JSON schemas \(e.g., function calling formats\) for all inter-agent messaging and handoffs, never raw text.

Journey Context:
LLMs are unreliable at extracting unstructured text into actionable parameters. Free-form handoffs lead to cascading parsing errors down the chain. Structured schemas enforce type checking and required fields, making the handoff machine-readable and deterministic.
