Answer 1

That's what triggerActions do to you. They can be very handy to keep your dialogs open (http://www.pveller.com/smarter-conversations-part-2-open-dialogs) but in your case they get in the way.

You can keep your dialogs immune to the global routing system, if you place them under the IntentDialog. If all you do is A and B, then this would be an un-interruptible equivalent of your code:

const intents = new builder.IntentDialog({
    recognizers: [
        new builder.LuisRecognizer(process.env.LUIS_ENDPOINT)
    ]
});

intents.matches('A', 'A');
intents.matches('B', 'B');

bot.dialog('/', intents);
bot.dialog('A', []);
bot.dialog('B', []);

Answer 2

All you have to do is this:

var recognizer = new builder.LuisRecognizer(url) 
    .onEnabled(function (context, callback) {
        // LUIS is only ON when there are no tasks pending(e.g. Prompt text) 
        var enabled = context.dialogStack().length === 0; 
        callback(null, enabled); 
    });
