Report #95788

[architecture] Agents communicating via unstructured natural language leads to hallucinated state

Use structured JSON schemas for inter-agent messaging; reserve natural language only for the final user-facing output.

Journey Context:
LLMs are unreliable at parsing free-text instructions from other LLMs without hallucinating constraints or missing parameters. JSON schema enforces contract-driven communication, allowing programmatic validation and preventing cascading parsing errors between agents.
