If the flagstone splits you may be able to set it back in place with epoxy.
The washed stone should be damp or dry. Dripping water will create a cushion effect and will seperate when the mortar is dry.
The mortar should be placed over the slab and on the backside of the stone. Wet mortar on wet mortar is the best bond.
As far as tool marks go, the whole concept of a flagstone patio is to produce a surface that appears to have fit together without any cuts.
They should be "dressing" the cut edges of the stone to disguise any marks.
