Report #64534

[architecture] Agents failing to parse instructions or dropping parameters during inter-agent handoffs

Enforce structured-schema messaging \(e.g., JSON Schema, Pydantic\) for all agent-to-agent communication; reserve natural language strictly for human interaction.

Journey Context:
Developers often treat inter-agent communication like human chat, using free-form text. LLMs are notoriously unreliable at extracting structured parameters from unstructured text, leading to cascading parsing errors and hallucinated arguments. Structured schemas act as rigid API contracts between agents, guaranteeing that required fields are present and correctly typed, drastically reducing coordination failure modes.
