3. Tune Confidence Threshold

Start at 0.90 and adjust based on accuracy:

• Too many false positives? Increase threshold
• Too many LLM fallbacks? Decrease threshold

4. Use Specific Patterns

# ✗ Too broad
patterns: ["data"]

# ✓ Specific
patterns: ["analyze data", "data analysis", "process dataset"]

5. Combine with Cost Controls

The broker reduces costs, but still set budgets as a safety net.
