Report #44207
[architecture] Agents failing to parse arguments passed via free-form natural language
Enforce structured JSON schemas for all inter-agent messages and handoffs. Treat agent-to-agent communication as an API contract, not a chat.
Journey Context:
It is tempting to let agents talk to each other via natural language for flexibility. However, LLMs frequently hallucinate or omit required parameters when generating free-form text for another agent to parse. Structured schemas eliminate parsing ambiguity and ensure the receiving agent gets exactly the typed data it needs to execute.
