Report #70248

[architecture] Routing tasks to specialized agents prematurely, causing unnecessary context fragmentation

Route to a specialist agent only if the primary agent's confidence score falls below a defined threshold, or explicitly emit a structured handoff call.

Journey Context:
Over-eager routing delegates tasks that the primary agent could have handled adequately. Every handoff fragments context and increases latency. By evaluating confidence or forcing the agent to explicitly yield via a function call, you minimize unnecessary handoffs and keep the conversational context intact as long as possible.
