You’re implementing escalation logic for when the agent should invoke `escalate_to_human`. Your team has proposed four different ways to trigger escalation. Which approach will most reliably identify cases that truly need human intervention?

AImplement sentiment analysis that monitors for frustration indicators (negative language, repeated questions, exclamation marks) and trigger escalation when the frustration score exceeds a configured threshold.

BConfigure the agent to escalate after three consecutive tool calls that fail to resolve the customer’s stated issue, ensuring a reasonable attempt before involving a human.

CInstruct the agent to escalate when the customer requests a human, when the issue requires policy exceptions, or when the agent cannot make meaningful progress.

DBuild a rules engine that maps specific issue types, customer segments, and product categories to escalation decisions, removing the need for model judgment calls.
