In a Claude Code skill's frontmatter, the description field is what Claude reads to decide when to load the skill, and disable-model-invocation: true stops Claude from loading it on its own, so it only runs when you invoke it.

How we checked
Claude Code skills docs frontmatter table confirms both fields and their behavior
Why it matters
If you write descriptions as triggers and lock skills with side effects, agents stop firing deploy or merge workflows by surprise.
Try this
Add disable-model-invocation: true to any of your skills that merges, deploys or sends messages.

Theo's full-send skill has an agent take a change all the way to a merged PR: prove it works, review it, file the PR, watch CI and review bots, then merge. full-stop does the same but stops before merging.

How we checked
tstack README describes full-send and full-stop as stated; skill not executed
Why it matters
It shows a concrete merge gate and proof step for autonomous agents. full-stop is the safer version if you want a human to merge.
Try this
Start with a full-stop style flow, where the agent prepares a PR and a person merges it, before allowing any agent to merge.

tstack includes cross-model review skills. sol-loop has a GPT Sol model review a change in a loop until both agents agree, and council gets reviews from three models from different providers until they agree.

How we checked · Why it matters · Try this
How we checked
README lists sol-loop and council as described; the 3 to 5 round budget is only in the video
Why it matters
Pairing an authoring model with a reviewer from another vendor is a cheap way to catch mistakes that one model misses.
Try this
On one non-critical PR, ask a model from a different vendor to review your main agent's diff and compare what each one finds.
