Tree sync for 0.2.111: plugin subagents inherit parent MCP servers, and the default web-search model is now grok-4.5.
Changelog
[fix] Plugin subagents inherit the parent session’s connected MCP servers (default mcpInheritance: all), so search_tool / use_tool behave like they do for local agents. Plugin agents still cannot declare their own MCP servers, hooks, or elevated permission modes.
[changed] Default web_search model is grok-4.5 (replacing grok-4.20-multi-agent).
[removed] Model grok-4.20-multi-agent is no longer in the default model list.
[changed] Docs and config examples use grok-4.5 as the default session model (replacing older grok-build / multi-agent examples where those appeared).
Agent & tools
Subagent frontmatter supports mcpInheritance: all (default), none, named: […], or except: […].
Plugin-sourced agents get the same parent MCP inheritance rules; they still cannot add private mcpServers, hooks, or permissionMode: bypassPermissions in agent frontmatter.
Plugin-bundled MCP (plugin .mcp.json) continues to attach at the parent/session after the plugin is trusted.
Docs
Plugins guide rewritten around marketplaces: add/install flow, trust, authoring, pinned versions, and organization distribution controls.
Subagents and MCP servers document MCP inheritance and how to debug an empty search_tool / use_tool catalog on a child.
Permissions and safety, agent mode, and headless mode reorganized around always-approve / automation (--always-approve, --yolo, bypassPermissions, session _meta.yoloMode) with clearer mode tables and SDK examples.
Skills points at marketplace packaging for team-wide distribution.
/copy and terminal clipboard notes: confirmed copies toast briefly; unverified OSC 52 / unreachable clipboard paths name the backup file.
User-guide index blurbs updated for plugins and permissions.
Under the hood
Product/changelog version remains 0.2.111.
Default model map: web_search → grok-4.5; grok-4.20-multi-agent dropped from the shipped model list.
Upgrade notes
If you pinned GROK_WEB_SEARCH_MODEL or [models].web_search to grok-4.20-multi-agent, switch that value to grok-4.5 (or another model you still ship).
Plugin authors relying on subagents + MCP should confirm parent session servers are connected and review mcpInheritance if a child should see a narrower set.
