RL Selects the Response, Not the Facts

State:

1. Failure category

2. Risk level

3. Retry count

4. Drift severity

5. Data-quality condition

Action:

retry • coerce • rollback • quarantine • escalate • log

1. Tabular Q-learning

2. Small, interpretable state space

3. Low-memory inference

4. Inspectable Q-values for every decision

TECHNICALLY, THIS IS A SINGLE-STEP CONTEXTUAL DECISION PROBLEM IMPLEMENTED WITH TABULAR Q-LEARNING.
