Because this support set is the model's only task-specific signal, its composition directly influences segmentation performance. In this work, we investigate the support set as a controllable determinant of ICL reliability. First, we compare random sampling against similarity-based selection, where exemplars are retrieved based on their visual similarity to the query image. Second, we train a transformer-based classifier to predict, from the query and support images alone, whether a segmentation will fall below a specified Intersection-over-Union (IoU) threshold. Using MultiverSeg with DINOv3 embeddings across four benchmarks and three imaging modalities, we show that similarity-based selection consistently matches or outperforms random sampling, with the largest gains at the smallest support set sizes. Furthermore, our classifier predicts segmentation failure above chance on all four benchmarks. Ultimately, these results demonstrate that the reliability of in-context segmentation can be both improved via informed support selection and anticipated before use, providing practical mechanisms for safer clinical deployment.
