Compose another workflow (spec 14) · a STATIC target: a filesystem path OR registry:owner/name@version (pinned). A templated target is refused at check (NIKA-COMP-001). Exactly one of tool: | workflow: (the invoke tagged union · G21). One of 59 words the served contract declares, projected from workflow.schema.json, the same file your editor validates against.
