 This directory implements a two-phase scheduler for distributed LLM inference:
 
-- **Phase 1 — Layer allocation**: assign contiguous decoder layer ranges to nodes and rebalance in place.
-- **Phase 2 — Request routing**: compute an end-to-end, minimum-latency path across the assigned node ranges.
+### Phase 1 — Layer allocation
+
+Assign contiguous decoder layer ranges to nodes and rebalance in place, as illustrated below:

 The main entrypoint is `scheduling.scheduler.Scheduler`, which orchestrates allocation, dynamic joins/leaves, health checks, and routing.
