deciding-with-confidence

Answers yes/no, multiple-choice and rubric-score questions about a piece of text with a probability for every option and a calibrated confidence, in the request and response shapes of OpenAI's Decisions API. Claude Haiku 5.5 does the judging; the skill estimates the probabilities that a purpose-built decision model would read off its logits.

echo '{"input": "I was charged twice.", "questions": [{"type": "choice", "name": "dept",
  "instructions": "Which department?", "choices": [{"value": "billing"}, {"value": "shipping"}]}]}' \
  | python3 scripts/decide.py run -

It runs through the Anthropic API (pip install anthropic and a key), the claude CLI, Amazon Bedrock, or parallel subagents inside Claude Code: the deciding-with-confidence plugin installs a decider agent pinned to Haiku 5.5 alongside the skill. On a 104-item eval it reached 0.846 accuracy against 0.894 for a purpose-built decision model, with matching calibration error. Its wrong answers come at low confidence, so thresholding on confidence and on agreement between samples catches most of them. See SKILL.md for the procedure and references/method.md for the measurements.

assets/eval.jsonl includes 64 items from the banking77 test split (PolyAI, CC-BY-4.0); each item names its source.
