+## Plan
+
+## Preflight / implementation intent
+
+Classification: implementation-ready first slice of Orchestrator automation.
+
+Intent:
+- Implement the queued Ticket routing entrypoint without starting coder/reviewer/worktree routing in this ticket.
+- Panel Queue should notify the workspace Orchestrator with active routing semantics: read Ticket/workspace state and start if unblocked.
+- Orchestrator workflow/prompt should define `queued -> inprogress` as the acceptance marker that must happen before implementation side effects.
+
+Requirements:
+- Update Panel Queue notice and Orchestrator notification text away from passive/implementation-not-started semantics.
+- Notification must include Ticket id/slug/title where practical and instruct:
+  - read the Ticket;
+  - inspect current workspace state;
+  - if unblocked, transition `queued -> inprogress` before worktree/SpawnPod side effects;
+  - if blocked, record a concise reason and leave queued or explicitly defer.
+- Update `ticket-orchestrator-routing` workflow guidance to reflect queued-trigger routing and the acceptance-order invariant.
+- Do not implement worktree/coder/reviewer routing here; that belongs to `orchestrator-worktree-agent-routing`.
+- Do not implement merge/close completion here; that belongs to `orchestrator-merge-completion`.
+- Do not implement the orchestration plan tool here; `ticket-orchestration-plan-tool` owns durable ordering/dependency/conflict notes.
+
+Current code map:
+- `crates/tui/src/multi_pod.rs`
+  - Queue action around `dispatch_ticket_action` currently says `No implementation was started.`
+  - `notify_workspace_orchestrator` currently says `Do not start implementation directly from this notification; follow routing/preflight gates.`
+  - Tests around Queue outcome and notify-only path are nearby.
+- `.yoi/workflow/ticket-orchestrator-routing.md`
+  - Currently says this workflow is not an unattended scheduler and requires human/upper Orchestrator permission before coder/reviewer spawn.
+  - It should be updated so queued notifications are treated as human authorization to route; implementation side effects still require `queued -> inprogress` acceptance first.
+- `crates/ticket/src/tool.rs`
+  - `TicketWorkflowState` tool/backend already enforce allowed transitions; do not duplicate transition enforcement in panel text.
+
+Validation:
+- Update focused tests for Queue notice / notification wording.
+- Run `cargo test -p tui multi_pod --lib`.
+- Run prompt/resource relevant checks if available, otherwise `target/debug/yoi ticket doctor`, `cargo fmt --check`, and `git diff --check`.

+
+## Intake summary
+
+Implementation-ready first slice: update Panel Queue notification/notice and Orchestrator routing workflow so queued Tickets actively trigger Orchestrator routing, with `queued -> inprogress` acceptance required before worktree/SpawnPod side effects. Worktree/coder/reviewer and merge completion remain separate follow-up tickets.
