Report #8451

[architecture] Routing tasks to specialized agents blindly based on keyword matching, causing agents to attempt tasks outside their actual capability

Implement confidence-aware routing where the router evaluates its own certainty, and agents return a confidence score with their output. If confidence is below a threshold, route to a generalist or human-in-the-loop.

Journey Context:
Keyword-based routing is brittle. A 'Code Agent' might get routed a task about 'code of conduct' and fail. By requiring agents to emit a confidence score \(or using an LLM-as-a-judge router\), the system can avoid sending tasks to the wrong silo and prevent cascading failures from specialized agents hallucinating outside their domain.
