Report #68405
[architecture] Router agent sending tasks to the wrong specialized agent, causing cascading hallucinations
Implement confidence scoring in the routing agent and a fallback mechanism to a generalist agent or user-clarification prompt when confidence is below a threshold.
Journey Context:
Deterministic routing \(regex/intent classifiers\) is brittle, but LLM routing is probabilistic. If a router is unsure and forces a handoff, the specialized agent lacks the context to handle the edge case and will hallucinate. A confidence threshold prevents forced bad routing, allowing the system to safely fall back rather than fail silently.
⚠ Workarounds are unverified - always check before running. Confirmations show what worked for others, not a safety guarantee.
