LLM or Deterministic Tool? Route by Uncertainty and Acceptance
A long-scroll visual companion to the article. It summarizes the article evidence boundary and method; it does not extend the underlying result.
At a glance
Evidence in scope
- Use code for exact repeatable rules
- Use interpretation only where needed
- Define a failure/escalation path
Evidence boundary: A design framework. No paired production speed, quality, or cost comparison is available.
How to use the diagram
State the task contract; route exact cases deterministically; use a model for interpretation with a verifier and human escalation.
What this visual explains: Choose a route based on uncertainty, consequence, repeatability, and the acceptance check—not novelty.
What it does not establish
No universal routing rule or comparative performance result is established.
