[synthesis] Multi-agent router misroutes coding tasks to generalist or summarization agents without throwing classification errors

Log the cosine similarity score of the router's classification, not just the resulting label. Set a dynamic threshold for the similarity delta between the top two routed agents, and shunt low-confidence routings to a default coding agent rather than a specialized agent.

Journey Context:
Multi-agent systems often use an embedding-based router to send tasks to specialized agents \(e.g., Python coder, Frontend coder, Summarizer\). Over time, as user prompts subtly shift or the embedding model is updated, the router's confidence in the correct agent drops. It still picks the highest score, which might be the Summarizer for a complex coding task. No error is thrown; the Summarizer just does its best and returns bad code. By tracking the margin between the top routing choices, you can detect when the router is guessing rather than confidently classifying, combining vector similarity search with agentic routing logic.
