For each stage to execute, invoke the stage skill but spawn it with the optional agents in the effective skip list **omitted from the spawn graph** - this skill is the orchestrator, so it simply does not call those agents (the stage skills do not read a `quick_mode` flag; the skipping happens here, by not spawning them).

 ## Integration Point
 
-Every `{{command_prefix}}*` SKILL.md's first substantive step is: spawn the router via `Task` or inline invocation; receive the JSON blob; pass it to downstream agents as context so the budget-enforcer hook has the router decision available in tool_input metadata when the first Agent spawn fires.
+The router is **optional and advisory**, not a universal first step. Only the handful of skills that explicitly opt into routing reference it (today: the root pipeline `SKILL.md` / `{{command_prefix}}handoff`, and `{{command_prefix}}style` documents that it deliberately does *not* invoke the router because it is a leaf invocation). The pipeline stage skills (explore / plan / design / verify) do **not** spawn the router. When a skill does invoke it, the flow is: invoke the router via `Task` or inline invocation; receive the JSON blob; pass it to downstream agents as context so the budget-enforcer hook has the router decision available in tool_input metadata when the first Agent spawn fires.
+
+When no skill supplies a router decision, the budget-enforcer hook reads `tool_input.context.router_decision` as absent and falls back to its legacy back-compat path - the router's absence is tolerated by design, never an error.
