Froome covered an attack. He didn't work with the Avanti rider, just followed. Sky should have simply rode tempo if they were not wanting to open the possibility of a Froome win - by letting him cover the break with a strong time trailer, there was always going to be a chance Froome would stay away. Pat Shaw is the road captain of Avanti, no doubt the whole sky tactics were part of the discussion occurring on the climb.
