用隐空间通信可压缩99%信息，但文本丢失88%关键特征。

Multi-agent systems (MAS) are utilized in many contexts and many professions. Those MAS rely on inter-agent communication, usually implemented by clear-text message passing. We hypothesize that Large Language Models may have a world model at their disposal that exceeds expressibility in text when complex concepts need to be communicated. Our aim is to approach a proof of this hypothesis with structured experiments. In this work, we show that LLM agents communicating via text lose information, which we quantify via Sparse Autoencoder (SAE) feature analysis. We construct three communication channels and measure concept-discriminating information in each. We first show that the SAE-sparse channel retains a 99.4% probe accuracy at 28-fold compression over the dense-latent channel vs 80.4% for the text channel. We then proceed to examine the same for cross-architecture communication by using sparse latent space alignment. We find for Procrustes alignment a 92% top-1 retrieval between Llama and Mistral. Using a text round-trip, we perform feature survival analysis to find that text serialization destroys 88% of SAE features, replacing them with a different feature set. We attribute the loss to identity replacement, not attenuation. By our analysis, we were able to attribute a 3-10pp performance penalty to the linear Procrustes alignment, improving with nonlinear alignment methods. In a task-level evaluation we find that the latent channel matches the text channel on cross-lingual concept tasks but never exceeds it. Text augmentation with latent features provides no benefit, leading us to negative conclusions for the initial hypothesis: lost features mostly or completely encode surface form, not task-relevant semantics. To pinpoint the practical advantage of latent communication over a text channel, deeper tasks eliciting complex concepts and an corresponding analysis framework are needed.
