Report #41323

[architecture] Tasks routed to the wrong specialist agent due to ambiguous user intent

Implement confidence-aware routing where the router outputs both the target agent and a confidence score; if confidence is below a threshold, route to a Clarifier agent or fall back to a generalist, rather than guessing.

Journey Context:
Hard-coding routing rules or relying solely on embedding similarity often fails on edge cases. If the router is 50% confident Agent A should handle it, but it's actually Agent B's domain, the task fails and recovery is expensive. By surfacing the confidence score and defining a fallback/clarification path, you trade a slight increase in initial latency for a massive reduction in misrouted tasks.
