 "title": "Re-check low-confidence labels with a stronger model",
 "page_title": "How to re-check low-confidence labels with a stronger model with Classifier Dev",
 "summary": "Use the smart tier so answers under 0.7 confidence get a second opinion.",
 "who": "A data or ops person whose batch of labels includes some ambiguous items that a fast answer may get wrong.",
 "problem": "Fast single-label answers are less reliable when the model is unsure, and it is hard to tell which ones to recheck by hand.",
 "outcome": "Uncertain single-label answers are replaced by a reasoning model's answer and marked escalated, while confident answers stay as they were.",
 "steps": [
  "Read the tier notes in the docs with `curl classifier.dev` to confirm how the tier option is set on a request.",
  "Add the smart tier to the request for single-label classification. (inferred, check the README)",
  "Check each result for `escalated: true` to find the answers that were replaced.",
  "Compare the escalated answers against a small hand-checked sample before trusting the whole batch."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Using the classifier-dev repo at classifier.dev, classify each item in <input file> with the smart tier for single-label work. Output a table of item, label, confidence and whether it was escalated. Verify that every escalated row has a label that was returned by the service.",
 "agents": [
  "any"
 ],
 "difficulty": "Intermediate",
 "time": "30 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "The README says smart re-asks single-label answers below 0.7 but does not show the parameter name, and multi-label requests ignore the tier, so verify the request format first.",
 "category": "Data and analytics",

 "lang": "typescript",
 "requirements": [
  "A terminal with curl or another HTTP client",
  "npm, only if you want the classify CLI",
  "The texts you want to label and a set of label names"
