Silent Parameter Mismatches in API Calls

The author encountered a significant issue where 37% of API calls from their AI agent had parameter mismatches, yet none raised an error. These mismatches led to incorrect outputs that appeared plausible. The problem arises from discrepancies in how parameters are interpreted between the agent and APIs, including issues with timestamp vs duration, inclusive vs exclusive ranges, array vs comma-separated strings, and relative time vs Unix timestamps.
