- # Five-layer routing model
2
-
3
- Origin: Decision 76 (2026-06-30) LLM-primary routing model. Retires the
4
- deterministic NL routing engine and repositions the trigger schema as
5
- LLM-readable intent documentation. Builds on the original five-layer concept
6
- from Decision 42 (2026-05-04), redefining Layers 3-4 as LLM-native.
7
-
8
- The Agentera routing model resolves incoming requests to a capability across
9
- five layers. Layers 1, 2, and 5 are deterministic dispatch (bare invocation,
10
- exact alias, no match); they are implemented and unchanged. Layers 3 and 4
11
- cover natural-language requests. Per Decision 76, the LLM host — the AI model
12
- that receives the user's message — owns natural-language routing natively. The
13
- trigger schema (`description`, `disambiguates_against`, `priority`, phase
14
- context) provides LLM-readable intent documentation the host consults; there is
15
- no scoring engine, no confidence threshold, and no borderline band. Layer 4
16
- (formerly borderline-band disambiguation) is dissolved into Layer 3: the LLM
17
- resolves ambiguity natively, using `disambiguates_against` hints as advisory
18
- context. Decision 75's request-vs-state mutual exclusivity is dissolved: request
19
- intent and state-readiness are both advisory context the LLM consults.
20
-
21
- ## Layer 1: Bare `/agentera` delegate to prime
22
-
23
- - **Input pattern**: the request is `/agentera` with no additional text.
24
- - **Action**: delegate immediately to the status capability. Status performs
25
- state-aware routing through the `agentera prime` composite result, which
26
- condenses project artifacts and suggests the most useful next capability.
27
- This is deterministic and never wrong.
28
- - **Implementation status**: implemented and unchanged.
29
-
30
- ## Layer 2: capability name or `/agentera <primary-alias>` — direct route
31
-
32
- - **Input pattern**: the request text exactly matches a capability name
33
- (case-insensitive), or exactly matches one primary alias from
34
- `capability_schema_contract.yaml` `ROUTE_ALIASES.primary_aliases`, or begins
35
- with a canonical capability name followed by more text (`/agentera <capability>
36
- <topic>`).
37
- - **Action**: route directly to that capability without evaluating natural-language
38
- trigger descriptions. Pass any remaining text as the user's topic or instruction.
39
- Each capability has exactly one primary alias; secondary wording stays in
40
- capability trigger schemas below this layer.
41
- - **Implementation status**: implemented and unchanged.
42
-
43
- ## Layer 3: Natural language LLM-native routing
44
-
45
- - **Input pattern**: the request is natural language (e.g. "help me think
46
- through this") that does not match Layer 1 or Layer 2.
47
- - **Action**: the LLM host routes natively. It consults the trigger schema's
48
- `description` fields (what each capability does), `disambiguates_against`
49
- hints (how to tell near-equal capabilities apart), and `priority`
50
- (relevance precedence) as LLM-readable intent documentation, then selects a
51
- capability. There are no confidence scores, no thresholds, and no
52
- weighted-average computation; the LLM reads the intent descriptions and
53
- routes.
54
- - **Resolving ambiguity**: when two capabilities could match a request, the
55
- LLM host resolves the ambiguity natively, surfacing the
56
- `disambiguates_against.hint` strings as advisory context when it asks the
57
- user to confirm or clarify. The hints supply the words; the LLM supplies the
58
- judgment.
59
- - **Implementation status**: implemented — the LLM host owns this layer.
60
- `references/cli/trigger-schema-enrichment.md` is the intent documentation
61
- contract the host reads.
62
-
63
- ## Layer 4: Dissolved into Layer 3
64
-
65
- Layer 4 formerly described a borderline-band disambiguation engine that fired
66
- when two capabilities scored within a configurable band. Decision 76 retired
67
- that engine: ambiguity resolution is now part of Layer 3, performed natively by
68
- the LLM host using the `disambiguates_against` hints as advisory context. There
69
- is no separate disambiguation layer, no borderline band, and no
70
- disambiguation-engine output schema.
71
-
72
- ## Layer 5: No match — fallback to status
73
-
74
- - **Input pattern**: the LLM host cannot map the request to any capability from
75
- the trigger schema's intent descriptions.
76
- - **Action**: route to status for orientation. Status handles status requests
77
- and ambiguous inputs.
78
- - **Implementation status**: implemented and unchanged.

+ # Hybrid routing model
2
+
3
+ The portable shared skill and CLI use one hybrid cascade. Explicit routes and
4
+ curated, globally unique literal phrases provide deterministic tiers; open-ended
5
+ language remains host-owned. The normative protocol is
6
+ [`hybrid-route-contract.yaml`](./hybrid-route-contract.yaml); this page is a
7
+ reader-oriented model, not a second contract.
8
+
9
+ Decision 76 remains in force for natural-language judgment. Decision mpulyomlyl supersedes it only for the curated literal fast path: there is still no scoring engine, no confidence threshold, and no borderline band. Legacy trigger patterns, regexes, thresholds, and bands do not route requests.
10
+
11
+ ## Cascade and precedence
12
+
13
+ 1. **Bare `/agentera`.** With no added text, select status deterministically.
14
+ 2. **Explicit direct route.** A canonical capability name or primary alias uses
15
+ the established direct-route grammar and passes its remaining text as topic.
16
+ 3. **Curated leading phrase.** Match one active phrase from
17
+ [`skills/agentera/route-phrases.yaml`](../../skills/agentera/route-phrases.yaml)
18
+ only when it is the exact normalized leading phrase. It selects that phrase's
19
+ sole owner and preserves the original remainder as topic.
20
+ 4. **Deterministic abstention.** Every other request returns
21
+ `semantic_required`. This tier never guesses from trigger prose, substrings,
22
+ regexes, scores, thresholds, bands, state, or `next_action`.
23
+ 5. **Validated semantic receipt.** The host makes an LLM-native semantic
24
+ judgment and submits `select`, `clarify`, or `no_match`; the CLI validates it
25
+ before capability startup. `select` starts one selected capability, `clarify` starts none, and `no_match` must route to status for orientation only after no capability matches.
26
+
27
+ The direct grammar has precedence over phrase matching. A phrase collision is a
28
+ registry validation error, not a tie to resolve at runtime.
29
+
30
+ ## Phase one: route request
31
+
32
+ `agentera.route_request.v1` takes the transient original request. Its response
33
+ is exactly one of:
34
+
35
+ - `deterministic_selection`: a `bare`, `direct`, or `phrase` selection with
36
+ capability, provenance, recognized span, and topic span.
37
+ - `semantic_required`: a request digest, semantic intent capsule, and canonical
38
+ capsule digest. It does not start a capability.
39
+
40
+ The request itself is not persisted. The semantic capsule contains active
41
+ trigger `description`, `priority`, and `disambiguates_against` documentation,
42
+ not executable matcher inputs. Its digest is SHA-256 over contract-owned
43
+ canonical JSON (recursively sorted object keys, no insignificant whitespace,
44
+ and the presented array order) for exactly that capsule. It excludes private
45
+ request text, request digests, diagnostics, state, and matcher authorities the
46
+ host did not see.
47
+
48
+ ## Phase two: semantic receipt
49
+
50
+ For `semantic_required`, the host sends the same transient original request and
51
+ the complete nullable host receipt to `agentera route receipt --input - --format
52
+ json`. The receipt binds to the SHA-256 of the request's UTF-8 bytes and the
53
+ `semantic_capsule_sha256` returned in phase one. The CLI first validates the
54
+ unmodified host shape, removes only contract-listed nulls, then reruns
55
+ deterministic routing and accepts the receipt only when the same request still
56
+ produces `semantic_required` with both bound digests. It then validates the
57
+ projected CLI receipt with canonical-capability binding and request-bound span
58
+ rules:
59
+
60
+ | Receipt | Required result | Startup |
61
+ | --- | --- | --- |
62
+ | `select` | one canonical capability and `none` or `preserve` compound disposition | selected capability only |
63
+ | `clarify` | one non-empty question | none |
64
+ | `no_match` | no capability or question | status only |
65
+ | invalid | bounded field-level correction, exit 64 | none |
66
+
67
+ The resulting `selected` or `status_fallback` authorization contains bounded
68
+ route provenance and the existing `agentera prime --context <capability>
69
+ --format json` startup path. A `clarification` contains exactly one bounded
70
+ question and no startup. This is intentionally a shared CLI contract, not a
71
+ runtime-specific adapter. The portable shared skill is the sole host integration
72
+ surface.
73
+
74
+ ## Phrase, span, and topic behavior
75
+
76
+ The phrase registry owns stable IDs, capability ownership, literal phrases,
77
+ global collision detection, and deprecation. Per-capability trigger schemas
78
+ never create phrase ownership. Matching uses the contract's normalized token
79
+ view (Unicode NFKC, case folding, whitespace normalization) while returning
80
+ source UTF-8 byte offsets and exact slices from the original request. A `:`,
81
+ `-`, or `—` that terminates the final phrase token is recognized in the
82
+ comparison view but starts the preserved topic slice; other attached
83
+ punctuation abstains.
84
+
85
+ For example, `HELP\tME decide: migrate the store` recognizes only
86
+ `HELP\tME decide`; its topic is the exact original `: migrate the store`.
87
+ The separator is deliberately preserved. Quoted, negated, later-in-sentence,
88
+ partial, and unregistered wording abstains; it belongs to the semantic phase.
89
+
90
+ ## Selection, ambiguity, and compounds
91
+
92
+ The LLM host owns semantic selection and genuine consequential ambiguity. It
93
+ consults trigger intent documentation, then chooses one of `select`, `clarify`,
94
+ or `no_match`. A compound request never authorizes implicit chaining:
95
+
96
+ - A direct or phrase selection preserves its entire original remainder as one
97
+ topic without interpreting it as follow-on work.
98
+ - A semantic `select` may mark one original, UTF-8 code-point-aligned trailing
99
+ remainder span `preserve`; it is deferred intent, not a second startup.
100
+ `clarify` is an outcome, never a compound disposition.
101
+ - Independent or consequential compound intent uses the `clarify` outcome when
102
+ one primary capability cannot be named safely.
103
+
104
+ `next_action` informs readiness only after classification and cannot override the message intent. It never classifies a request.
105
+
106
+ ## Evaluation and privacy
107
+
108
+ The visible frozen development and adversarial regression data live in
109
+ [`fixtures/routing/hybrid-corpus.yaml`](../../fixtures/routing/hybrid-corpus.yaml).
110
+ They use synthetic or explicitly consented text only and are the sole frozen
111
+ implementation conformance corpus; no sealed holdout, credential, privacy
112
+ approval, or provider-host benchmark is required.
113
+ Retained evaluation evidence contains IDs, partition, outcome, tier,
114
+ capability, timing, and aggregate metrics; private raw request
115
+ text, topic text, receipt questions, and semantic rationale are absent by
116
+ default.
117
+
118
+ The portable host receipt shape has all fields required, using nullable fields
119
+ for outcome-inapplicable values; the bounded host-to-CLI normalization seam first
120
+ validates that unmodified shape, removes only contract-listed nulls, and preserves
121
+ every non-null value unchanged. The CLI schema then separately validates outcome
122
+ relationships, request binding, spans, canonical capabilities, and startup authorization.
123
+ Normalization never authorizes startup or weakens a cross-field rule.
124
+ The evaluator reports separate, run-specific local deterministic and
125
+ receipt-validation p95 values. They prove protocol conformance for this visible
126
+ corpus, not semantic generalization or an end-to-end latency commitment. Semantic
127
+ model quality and latency remain host-dependent and unmeasured; it makes no live
128
+ model calls.

17
-
18
- Decision 76 (2026-06-30) retires the deterministic NL routing engine. The LLM
19
- host the AI model that receives the user's message owns natural-language
20
- routing natively. This document is repositioned from a scoring-enrichment
21
- contract to the **trigger intent documentation contract**: it defines the
22
- `triggers.yaml` fields that help the LLM host understand what each capability
23
- does and how to disambiguate near-equal requests.
24
-
25
- The fields stay as documentation, not as scoring inputs. The LLM host reads the
26
- descriptions and disambiguates natively; `priority` and `disambiguates_against`
27
- are advisory hints, not scoring weights. There is no scoring algorithm, no
28
- confidence threshold, no borderline band, and no `prime --route` output schema.
29
- Decision 75's request-vs-state mutual exclusivity is dissolved: request intent
30
- and state-readiness are both advisory context the LLM consults. Decision 76
31
- supersedes Decision 75 design choices 2 (request-derived scoring as router), 4
32
- (mutual exclusivity), and 5 (pure request-derived).
33
-
34
- Decision 76 records the design choices and rejected alternatives (including the
35
- tuning-the-engine and reposition-`--route` alternatives that were rejected).
12
+ - **Scope:** The semantic phase of the two-phase route contract. See
13
+ `references/cli/hybrid-route-contract.yaml` for the authoritative precedence,
14
+ abstention, receipt validation, and startup authorization rules.
15
+
16
+ ## Current boundary and obsolete layer numbering
17
+
18
+ Earlier Decision 76 material described open-ended routing as Layer 3 and folded
19
+ the former Layer 4 into it. That layer numbering is obsolete; it is not another
20
+ routing model. The hybrid route contract now has one deterministic request phase
21
+ (bare, direct, and curated phrase selection) and one semantic receipt phase.
22
+
23
+ Only a `semantic_required` response may expose these fields to a host. The host
24
+ uses them to choose `select`, `clarify`, or `no_match`, then submits the complete
25
+ receipt. The CLI validates that receipt before authorizing capability startup.
26
+ `priority` and `disambiguates_against` are advisory semantic-judgment context,
27
+ not scoring weights. There is no scoring algorithm, confidence threshold,
28
