Report #60550

[frontier] Unstructured RAG context polluting agent reasoning with retrieval noise

Use MCP Prompt arguments as typed memory slots, injecting structured context via prompt templates

Journey Context:
Dumping raw RAG chunks into context causes the agent to ignore critical constraints. MCP Prompts define typed arguments \(string, image, resource\) that act as memory schemas. The server renders these into structured system prompts. Tradeoff: requires server-side prompt engineering but decouples memory structure from agent logic. Prevents 'needle in haystack' context loss.
