11. Recent Critical Updates (2026-02-24)

Tool Gating & Policy Implementation

Problem: AI was responding to simple queries like "2+2" with portfolio analysis instead of direct answers.

Solution Implemented:

  1. Planner unknown-intent fallback returns no tools ([])
  2. Executor policy gate with deterministic routes (direct|tools|clarify)
  3. Read-only allowlist for portfolio tools
  4. Rebalance confirmation logic
  5. Policy verification telemetry
  6. Fixed false numerical warnings on no-tool routes

Files Changed:

  • ai-agent.utils.ts:257 - Planner returns [] for unknown intent
  • ai-agent.policy.utils.ts:84 - Policy gate implementation
  • ai.service.ts:160,177 - Policy gate wired into runtime
  • ai-agent.verification.helpers.ts:12 - No-tool route fix
  • ai-observability.service.ts:366 - Policy telemetry

Verification:

npm run test:ai                    # 44 tests passing
npm run test:mvp-eval              # 2 tests passing (53 eval cases)
npx nx run api:lint               # Passing

Policy Routes

The policy now correctly routes queries:

Query Type Route Example
Simple arithmetic direct "2+2", "what is 5*3"
Greetings direct "hi", "hello", "thanks"
Portfolio queries tools "analyze my portfolio"
Rebalance without confirmation clarify "rebalance my portfolio"
Rebalance with confirmation tools "yes, rebalance to 60/40"

1,000 $120.72 $150.90
10,000 $1,207.20 $1,509.00
100,000 $12,072.00 $15,090.00

Assumptions:

  • 30 queries/user/month (1/day)
  • 2,400 input tokens, 700 output tokens per query
  • 1.5 tool calls/query average
  • 25% verification/retry buffer
