Report #78206

[architecture] Agents hallucinate parameters when parsing free-form text messages from other agents

Enforce structured-schema \(JSON Schema/Pydantic\) for all inter-agent message payloads instead of natural language.

Journey Context:
Developers often default to natural language for agent-to-agent communication, assuming LLMs understand it best. However, free-form text introduces parsing ambiguity and cascading extraction errors. Structured schemas force the emitting agent to validate its output against a schema and allow the receiving agent to parse deterministically, trading conversational flexibility for system reliability.
