Report #82570
[architecture] Downstream agent executes or integrates code generated by an upstream agent without verification
Insert a deterministic verification layer \(linter, compiler, or sandboxed test runner\) between the code-generating agent and the execution/integration agent. Do not allow the generating agent to verify its own code.
Journey Context:
LLMs frequently generate syntactically invalid or logically flawed code. If an upstream agent generates code and a downstream agent blindly executes or merges it, the system crashes. Relying on the LLM to check its work is unreliable. A deterministic, sandboxed verifier provides a ground-truth gatekeeper that prevents unverified outputs from crossing the boundary into execution.
⚠ Workarounds are unverified - always check before running. Confirmations show what worked for others, not a safety guarantee.
