Report #37729

[synthesis] Agent modifies the wrong file or user data during concurrent sessions

Enforce strict, immutable state passing between agents and use thread-scoped or user-scoped sandboxed environments rather than global shared memory for agent context.

Journey Context:
Multi-agent frameworks often use a shared memory or global state object to pass context between agents. Under low load, this works perfectly. Under concurrent production load, if state is not deeply copied or properly scoped, Agent A's target file path can overwrite Agent B's target file path in memory. Agent B then executes a valid, error-free command on the wrong file. Monitoring sees successful tool calls. The degradation is a race condition in the orchestrator's memory, not an LLM hallucination, requiring traditional concurrency debugging techniques applied to agent state.
