Optimization Intent Router

Use this skill when a user asks a question in natural language and it is not yet clear whether the request should be handled as:

• a numerical optimization problem (LP / MILP / QP)
• a routing problem (VRP / TSP / PDP)
• or a non-optimization task such as analytics, filtering, aggregation, forecasting, or explanation

This skill exists to decide whether cuOpt should be involved at all, and if so, which downstream formulation path should be used.

The classification from this skill is provisional. A later data-ingestion step may refine or correct the problem family if the uploaded tables clearly support a different interpretation.

Purpose

The user often does not say:

• "this is an LP"
• "this is a MILP"
• "this is a routing problem"
