Building Structured Inter-Agent Communication: A Practical Guide

This article discusses the importance of structured inter-agent communication in multi-agent systems. Most frameworks lack reliability at scale, leading to issues like output exceeding token limits or critical parameters being omitted. To address this, the article proposes using typed contracts to validate agent input and output schemas, ensuring deterministic and debuggable behavior. This approach is demonstrated using AgentForge, an open-source framework. Engineers should consider enforcing schemas in their agent pipelines to prevent errors and improve reliability.
