The product IS the rename, so the golden test speaks the new token: invariant 1 generates with name=dispatch expecting template/ byte-for-byte, invariants 2/2b expect dispatch→foo, and the residual grep now hunts 'dispatch'. RED against the current generator; the generator and template sweeps follow to turn it green. Co-Authored-By: Enrique Canals <84596+EnriqueCanals@users.noreply.github.com>
…patch RENAME_FROM is now "dispatch" — the token the generator substitutes for the user's chosen agent name. CLI identity strings follow: banner, help header, default prompt answer, git init author fallback (create-dispatch@local), and the initial commit message. The npm-init shorthand is corrected along the way: npm prepends create- itself, so the equivalent of npx @boldblackai/create-dispatch is npm init @boldblackai/dispatch (the old @boldblackai/bclaw line resolved to @boldblackai/create-bclaw). Golden test: 17/17 green. Co-Authored-By: Enrique Canals <84596+EnriqueCanals@users.noreply.github.com>
The bundled snapshot now speaks the new token everywhere the generator
substitutes: SSM namespace /dispatch/, KMS alias alias/dispatch-ssm,
IAM identities (dispatch-deployer, dispatch-cfn-exec), policy file
names, and the shipped skills — setup-dispatch, manage-dispatch,
teardown-dispatch (dirs + SKILL.md frontmatter names + cross-links),
moved with git mv so they render as renames. The one capitalized
sentence start ("Bclaw uses a two-role model") is normalized to
lowercase so no stale token casing survives generation.
Region token us-east-1 handling is untouched.

…-references package.json: name @boldblackai/create-dispatch, bin create-dispatch, version 1.1.0, repository URL github.com/boldblackai/create-dispatch, homepage dispatch.boldblack.ai. tag-on-merge.yml idempotence guard now checks @boldblackai/create-dispatch@<version>. AGENTS.md self-references and the corkboard journal namespace (journal:create-dispatch:) follow; the release skill and the 2026-07-14 integration journal's operative template-file references are updated. The dated citation of rfcs/2026-06-27_bclaw-cli-scaffolder.md stays — it is a filename of a historical, immutable RFC. Co-Authored-By: Enrique Canals <84596+EnriqueCanals@users.noreply.github.com>
README: product is a dispatch agent (countable-noun phrasing), install command npx @boldblackai/create-dispatch, repo links point at create-dispatch, npm-init shorthand npm init @boldblackai/dispatch, and the BusinessClaw etymology sentence is removed — the new name is not short for anything. rfcs/2026-08-15_rename-to-dispatch.md records the rationale, replacement map, and migration notes (old npm name stays installable pending deprecation; deployed agents unaffected). CHANGELOG gains the 1.1.0 entry. Co-Authored-By: Enrique Canals <84596+EnriqueCanals@users.noreply.github.com>

Summary
@boldblackai/create-bclaw→@boldblackai/create-dispatch(stays scoped), bin name, homepagebclaw.sh→dispatch.boldblack.ai, generator rename token (RENAME_FROM), template SSM namespace/dispatch/, skillssetup-dispatch/manage-dispatch/teardown-dispatch(dirs renamed viagit mv), CI publish-guard line, and repo self-references (AGENTS.md, release skill).npm init @boldblackai/bclawshorthand was wrong (npm prependscreate-itself); it now readsnpm init @boldblackai/dispatch <name>, which actually resolves to the new package.rfcs/2026-08-15_rename-to-dispatch.mddocuments rationale, replacement map, and migration notes.@reportclaw→@reporter, "dispatch agent" phrasing per the site-copy precedent.Post-merge follow-ups (deferred service-side, by design)
create-bclaw→create-dispatch(redirect keeps old links working) — lands after this PR merges.@boldblackai/create-dispatch@1.1.0is manual (trusted publishing cannot do first publishes), then the trusted publisher is registered; the old package gets a deprecation pointer.Verification
pnpm test= tsc + node --test): byte-for-byte identity fordispatchgeneration, rename propagation, zero-residual assertions.pnpm lint,format:check,tsc --noEmit,pnpm install --frozen-lockfile(no lockfile diff needed — pnpm v11 lockfiles don't record the root package name).--helpbanner@boldblackai/create-dispatch, version1.1.0, corrected shorthand line.bclawgrep = 23 lines, all legitimate (historical RFCs, this RFC's old→new map, CHANGELOG history, one RFC-filename citation).Test plan
