What

When a skill is invoked as a slash command, the invocation no longer sets its own model and reasoning effort. It inherits whatever the session is already using instead of overriding it.

Details
  • The previous values came from the skill's own effort resolution and a default-effort fallback; both fields are gone from that branch.
Evidence

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
