Report #98981
[architecture] LLM output passed directly to the next agent without structural validation
Validate every inter-agent message against a published JSON Schema contract; treat the producing LLM as an untrusted emitter and the consuming agent as a strict validator that rejects mismatches.
Journey Context:
Teams often parse model outputs leniently because the model is 'usually right,' but this fails silently when function-call arguments drift, schemas evolve, or one model hallucinates fields. A typed interface makes failures explicit and prevents cascading errors. The cost is added latency and the need to version schemas, but it is the only way to compose agents safely.
⚠ Workarounds are unverified - always check before running. Confirmations show what worked for others, not a safety guarantee.
