1. The Problem of Natural Language Inter-Agent Telephone
When agent A summarizes its work in prose and passes it to agent B, nuances disappear and hallucinations propagate like the childhood game of telephone. By step 5, the agents are solving an entirely different problem than what the user requested.
Deterministic Handoffs ban prose handoffs across architectural seams. Every handoff payload must conform to an explicit Pydantic/Zod schema containing cryptographic proof of execution, discrete inputs, and validated outputs.
