Report #87711

[agent\_craft] Agent hallucinates parameters for a library function because it relies on pre-trained knowledge instead of current project context

Enforce a 'read before write' policy for external dependencies: dynamically fetch and inject the specific doc page or type definitions of the library being used before generating the code.

Journey Context:
LLMs confidently use deprecated APIs. Injecting the entire library docs is impossible. RAG over docs often retrieves the wrong version. The most reliable pattern is a tool that fetches the exact URL or parses the installed package's type stubs \(e.g., .d.ts or .pyi\) on the fly. This guarantees the agent uses the exact API signatures available in the current environment, trading a few seconds of fetch time for correctness.
