contents We study hyperonic density-dependent three-body effects in cold neutron-star matter using a Skyrme energy-density-functional framework. In beta-equilibrated $npeμΛ$ matter, the effective $ΛNN$ and $ΛΛN$ terms are varied separately in the $(β,A_3)$ and $(γ,C_3)$ planes, and each tabulated equation of state is used in Tolman--Oppenheimer--Volkoff calculations. The calculated $P$--$\varepsilon$ branches are classified by monotonicity and extremum structure. The $ΛΛN$ term does not affect the $Λ$-onset condition, but modifies the finite-$Λ$ post-onset EOS: increasing $C_3$ generally stiffens the post-onset branch and raises $M_{\max}$ in mechanically admissible regions, whereas increasing $γ$ reduces this enhancement at fixed $C_3$. In contrast, the $ΛNN$ term shifts the $Λ$-onset density and modifies the post-onset EOS simultaneously, producing organized branch-limited and Maxwell-candidate regions for some reference interactions. Representative two-extrema cases are examined with Maxwell constructions. We also perform an exploratory Bayesian analysis using neutron-star mass--radius information alone and apply XGBoost--SHAP surrogate diagnostics to summarize parameter sensitivities. Within the adopted likelihood and prior ranges, the posterior weight tends to favor sizable hyperonic three-body repulsion, and the SHAP analysis identifies $A_3$ and $C_3$ as important controls of $M_\text{max}$ and $R_{2.0}$. These results show that maximum-mass recovery in hyperonic neutron stars is not a single mechanism: $M_\text{max}$ maps must be interpreted together with onset behavior, branch admissibility, and extremum-count diagnostics. *shortened due to the arXiv's word limit.
