 - Python/Ruby/Julia use keyword arguments (`schema_mode` outside JS).

+- `agent` defaults from the current spawn policy; the selected agent's frontmatter model and settings always apply (there is no per-call model override — `model` is not accepted). `schema` overrides agent/session schemas; `schemaMode`/`schema_mode` chooses `permissive` or `strict`.
 - `isolated` requests isolation. `apply` controls whether captured changes are integrated; `merge=false` selects patch mode while the normal setting controls branch mode.
 - `handle=true` returns `{ text, output, handle, id, agent }`, optional parsed `data`, and isolation metadata instead of only output/data.
 - Eval subagents are one-shot (`keepAlive=false`), are unregistered/disposed after completion, and **do not share the caller's eval executor** (`shareEvalSession=false`). Their code mutations therefore do not appear in the caller's retained VM/kernel.

 ## [Unreleased]
 
+### Changed
+
+- Removed the per-call `model` override from the eval `agent()` helper (all runtimes), completing the earlier task-tool removal (`9f8aa87dbf`). Subagents always use their selected agent's frontmatter model and settings; a legacy `model` argument is silently ignored, so an explicit `model: "default"` can no longer route children onto the parent session model ([#6438](https://github.com/can1357/oh-my-pi/issues/6438)).

 ## [17.2.7] - 2026-08-03
