Report #43207
[frontier] LLM hallucinating invalid parameters for tool calls causing runtime crashes
Implement Pre-flight Schema Validation using Pydantic or Zod on the LLM's tool call arguments before executing the actual tool logic, returning a formatted error to the LLM for self-correction if validation fails.
Journey Context:
LLMs frequently generate tool calls with slightly malformed arguments \(e.g., missing required fields, wrong types, hallucinated enums\). If executed directly, this crashes the agent loop. By inserting a lightweight schema validation layer between the LLM output and the tool execution, the agent can catch the error and feed it back to the LLM for an automatic retry, drastically improving reliability without human intervention.
