A new Salesforce paper reveals that AI agents representing different parties fail to verify each other's claims by default, causing teams to inherit errors from their weakest agent. Through over 2,500 cross-sandbox sessions, the study cataloged 20 failure modes and emphasizes the need for protocol-level verification checks and party-specific scoring.

    • Agents do not re-fetch documents to test peers' factual claims unless explicitly prompted, leading to unverified information propagation.
    • Experiments showed confidential leaks passing all outcome checks (e.g., a $24k settlement case), exposing blind spots in current evaluation frameworks.
    • Recommendation: Embed verification logic into communication protocols and score each agent against the specific party it serves, not just team outcomes.
