[architecture] Routing tasks to specialized agents blindly without verifying their capability to handle the specific input

Implement a two-phase routing pattern: first, a lightweight classifier agent evaluates the task and assigns a confidence score; if confidence is below a threshold, route to a generalist or request human clarification rather than forcing a specialized agent to guess.

Journey Context:
Hard-coded routing rules \(e.g., 'if X keyword, route to Y agent'\) break on edge cases, sending irrelevant tasks to specialized agents who then hallucinate or fail silently. By evaluating routing confidence explicitly, the system avoids forcing a highly specialized but context-inappropriate agent to act, preventing destructive actions based on misinterpretation.
