What probably matters to youSection of the release
What
The skill docs add inference_geo, either "us" or "global", set inside an agent's model object rather than at the top level as on the Messages API. It is checked when the agent is saved, when a session is created, and on every turn, and it cannot change for the life of a session.
Details
Unlike effort, an inference_geo given in a per-session model override is applied.
Omitting it in an override clears the agent's pin.
Every model in a multiagent roster must use the same geography.
Evidence
Pinning inference geography
