Cut the 'it's user-invoked' rationale from the five preconditions

Per writing-for-agents' no-op test: "tell the user to run /X" is
already an unambiguous instruction with no branch where the agent
would otherwise try to call it, so the trailing justification changes
nothing at runtime. It also duplicates the rule .agents/invocation.md
already states as the single source of truth. Cut it from all five
call sites; the carve-out paragraph there is the one place the reason
needs to live.

 ## Dependencies between them
 
-Dependencies are expressed as **`/skill`-style prose invocation** ("Run the `/grilling` skill"), not deep `../other-skill/FILE.md` cross-references. Shared reference docs live inside the skill that owns them; other skills reach that material by invoking the skill, not by linking across folders.
+Dependencies are expressed as an explicit instruction to **call the Skill tool** with the named skill (`Call the Skill tool with "grilling"`), not deep `../other-skill/FILE.md` cross-references, and not a bare `/skill`-style mention left for the model to interpret. Naming the tool is what gets it fired: most harnesses expose skill invocation as a tool the model calls, and spelling that out gets a higher hit rate than dropping a `/name` into prose and hoping it's read as a command. Dropping the leading `/` also keeps this harness-neutral rather than less — a skill name on its own carries no assumption about which harness's trigger syntax it belongs to. Shared reference docs live inside the skill that owns them; other skills reach that material by calling the Skill tool with it, not by linking across folders.
+
+This is about **operative** instructions — a skill's own steps telling the agent to go run another skill right now. Router prose that just names skills for a human to pick from (`ask-matt`, bucket `README.md`s) isn't invoking anything, so it keeps `/skill`-style names as plain labels.
+
+The Skill tool takes one skill per call. A step that needs two skills is two calls, not one call with two names — say so (`Call the Skill tool twice, for "grilling" and "domain-modeling"`), not "call it with X and Y," which reads as a single call taking both.
+
+This whole convention only holds when the named skill is **model-invoked**. A user-invoked skill can never be reached this way, full stop — per the invariant above, no other skill can call it, including by naming it to the Skill tool. When a step's precondition is a user-invoked skill (e.g. `setup-matt-pocock-skills`), phrase it as an instruction for the human to act on — "tell the user to run `/setup-matt-pocock-skills`" — never as a Skill tool call.

+- `diagnosing-bugs`'s Phase 6 post-mortem hand off to `improve-codebase-architecture` (also user-invoked) the same way, from an autonomous, often-unattended bug-fixing flow with no human in the loop to catch the failed call.

+- Added a carve-out paragraph to `.agents/invocation.md`'s "Dependencies between them" section: the `Call the Skill tool with "name"` convention only applies when the named skill is model-invoked.
