-## Dispatch and planning
+## One-Off and Planning
 
 Type a fresh request in the bottom task input. When no plan is active, Rudder
-first routes it through a small Haiku dispatcher:
+starts one conversational agent in the main checkout and shows it in the
+`one-off` section. This keeps ordinary questions like "where is the app?" or "is
+it ready to use?" out of the DAG planner.
 
-- **One-off** for questions, explanations, docs/API research, repo inspection, or
-  tiny self-contained edits. This starts one conversational agent in the main
-  checkout and shows it in the `one-off` section.
-- **Plan** for building, adding, refactoring, integrating, testing, UI, docs pages,
-  or multi-step work. This starts the orchestrator. When unsure, Rudder chooses
-  the planner.
-
-The dispatcher is overrideable: ask for `/ask <text>` to skip routing and start
-one-off, or `/plan <text>` to skip routing and start the orchestrator.
+Use `/plan <text>` for planned implementation work. This starts the orchestrator,
+which decomposes the work into isolated workers. `/ask <text>` is kept as an
+explicit alias for the default one-off path.
 
 For planned work, Rudder runs a dedicated Claude Code orchestrator PTY with a DAG
 pane above it. The flow stays inside Rudder: the orchestrator researches
