+## Rebrand: `ai-project-orchestrator` → reCode (#86)
+The project was renamed **reCode**. What this means for an existing install:
+- **Repo renamed.** The GitHub repo moved from `robercano/ai-project-orchestrator` to `robercano/reCode`. Old
+  URLs redirect automatically, so a `"source": "github"` marketplace install (see `GETTING_STARTED.md`) keeps
+  working as-is — update the `repo:` value to `robercano/reCode` at your convenience.
+- **Marketplace name/id changed.** `ai-project-orchestrator` → `recode`. If you added the marketplace, update
+  your `extraKnownMarketplaces` alias key to `recode` and your `enabledPlugins` value to
+  `orchestrator@recode`. The alias is consumer-chosen, so this is a rename for consistency, not a hard break —
+  your existing install keeps functioning under the old alias until you change it.
+- **Command namespace unchanged.** The plugin's `name` field stays `orchestrator`, so every `/orchestrator:*`
+  command (`/orchestrator:setup`, `/orchestrator:sync`, `/orchestrator:pr-loop`, etc.) is unaffected — nothing
+  to re-learn.
+- **Sync markers unchanged.** The `@orchestrator-managed vN` version markers `/orchestrator:sync` uses are
+  unaffected, so running it after this rebrand re-stamps managed files with zero churn.
+- **Net action required: none.** The GitHub redirect and the unchanged plugin/command namespace mean an
+  existing downstream install keeps working untouched; renaming the marketplace alias to `recode` is optional
+  tidiness, not a requirement.
