> **Model fallback lists (v1.0.83+)**: `model` can list several models, tried in order until one is available to you — useful if your preferred model is temporarily rate-limited or not enrolled for your account. Pair it with `model-policy: required` to keep the agent restricted to that list even if the user tries to switch models mid-session:

**reasoningEffort** *(v1.0.66+)*: Override the reasoning effort level for this agent. Accepted values are `low`, `medium`, and `high`. This lets you pin specific agents to a cost/quality tradeoff regardless of the user's global setting — for example, a quick code-formatting agent can use `low` effort, while a security reviewer uses `high`: **reasoningEffort** *(v1.0.66+)*: Override the reasoning effort level for this agent.

> **Breaking change — sandbox network isolation (v1.0.83+)**: On macOS and Linux, sandboxed commands can no longer reach services running on your own machine, including a server the sandboxed command itself starts on `127.0.0.1`. This means test suites that bind a local port will fail inside the sandbox. Turn on **Allow local network** in `/sandbox` to restore access to localhost. On Linux, sandboxing also now requires `slirp4netns`, `nsenter`, `iptables`, `ip6tables`, `iptables-restore`, and `ip6tables-restore` on `PATH` — install these if sandboxed commands start failing to launch. Additionally, Linux sandboxes now restrict network egress to the configured HTTP(S) proxy when one is set; this proxy mode requires `slirp4netns`, `util-linux` 2.35+, `iptables`, and `/dev/net/tun` access.
