Report #94984

[architecture] Router agent blindly delegates to a specialist, even when the query is ambiguous or out of domain

Implement confidence-aware routing where the router must output a confidence score or a fallback to generalist option if intent is ambiguous.

Journey Context:
Standard intent classifiers fail on edge cases, leading to specialists receiving prompts they cannot handle, resulting in hallucinations or loops. By forcing the router to quantify uncertainty and providing a safe fallback, you prevent cascading failures in the agent chain. The router should be explicitly prompted to say I dont know rather than guessing.
