Building Structured Inter-Agent Communication: A Practical Guide
Short summary
Unstructured agent-to-agent messaging breaks at scale when outputs exceed token limits or critical context gets omitted. AgentForge enforces typed input/output contracts—both agents validate schema before execution, halting the pipeline on mismatches rather than allowing inference drift. This production-grade pattern catches integration bugs at orchestration time and gives deterministic, testable behavior instead of relying on LLMs to guess intent.
- •Schema validation between agents prevents output mismatches, token-limit surprises, and context loss
- •Typed contracts halt pipelines on validation errors instead of allowing agents to infer mismatched messages
- •Production agent systems need deterministic behavior—not LLMs guessing how to parse instructions
