that question is easy to answer
protruded, as woven is better at bending.
carbon strands have the most strength when pulled aka put into tension they are incredibly strong. but normal to the grain they are flimsy. Hence why woven twill is used on "cf plates" because it allows far more strength when loads that act normal to the face are applied.
the loads that your telescope will see the protruded rods will work just fine in tension and compression
