Report #94905

[architecture] Complex agent outputs are passed directly to the next agent without validation, leading to context window blowouts or syntax errors downstream

Insert a lightweight Verifier agent or deterministic linter step between generators to validate constraints \(e.g., line count, syntax\) before passing the payload.

Journey Context:
Relying on the next agent to handle garbage input wastes tokens and often causes it to hallucinate a fix rather than fail. A deterministic check \(like a Python AST parser or eslint\) is fast and free. If semantic validation is needed, a cheap, fast model acting as a judge is more cost-effective than letting the expensive primary model choke on bad input.
