The wire format is a design decision

Ablation lab: a scripted model sends 16 tool calls written as JSON, in an XML style and in a Python style. Set how the harness joins streamed pieces, handles a cut-off call and reads each format, then remove the schema check and count which bad calls reach the tool. Plus the rule for programs the model writes: every call inside goes through the guard.
