When Upstream Messages Override Correct Answers: A Controlled Study of Multi-Agent LLM Collaboration

Yaxin Gong, Gangyi Zhang, Chongming Gao +7

Multi-agent LLM systems rely on message passing among specialized agents to accomplish complex tasks. However, an upstream agent may provide useful information or an incorrect answ…
