Step

1. Look up the provider in references/cli-invocations.md. If the route itself does not match any provider, ask the user which CLI to use.
2. Resolve the model:
   • If the provider reference has a list-models command and this is your first dispatch to that provider in this session, run it and treat the result as a session cache.
   • If no reliable list is available, the provider is not claude/*, codex/*, or reasonix/*, and the user asks for a recommendation or gives a fuzzy model name, consult references/model-catalog.md.
   • Match the user's model string to the closest available id — case-insensitive, treat spaces and hyphens as equivalent. If no list is available, pass the user's model id through as written. If the user gave no model, use the CLI default. If no good match, ask the user.
3. Read references/dispatch-guardrails.md, prepare a bounded supervisor, and run the argv in $PWD with the provider reference's stdin contract. Return the executor's stdout, or the provider-specific extracted output when the reference defines one.

Done when: the executor exits successfully and its output appears in your response. Report launch failures and timeouts as failures; they do not satisfy this condition.
