Dispatch protocol

1. Infer the mode from the request.
2. Read references/CORE.md and references/POLICY.md for every invocation. Read references/OPTIONAL.md before public-web work.
3. When the target is a repository, read references/CORE.md once before specialist work; it is already billed eagerly.
