Report #68785

[architecture] Synchronizing full conversational history between agents causing token bloat and latency

Synchronize only delta state or structured artifacts \(e.g., updated JSON entities\) rather than raw chat logs.

Journey Context:
A common mistake is passing the entire messages array directly between agents. This exponentially grows the token count as agents discuss the state. Extracting and passing only the updated data \(the 'artifact' or 'state delta'\) keeps the context lean and focused, trading off the nuance of past reasoning steps for strict adherence to token limits and reduced latency.
