Financial ML agents should fail closed on unknown fields, says expert

A financial ML agent specification should implement a fail-closed security model, meaning it halts execution if it encounters unknown fields.

The proposed workflow involves a strict parsing and validation step before an agent spec is allowed to proceed to execution, ensuring that only explicitly defined capabilities are utilized. AI
