Subject: [PATCH] fix: update api_key in _try_activate_fallback for subagent
 auth (#3103)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

When fallback activates (e.g. minimax → OpenRouter), self.provider,
self.base_url, self.api_mode, and self._client_kwargs were all updated
but self.api_key was not. delegate_tool.py reads parent_agent.api_key
to pass credentials to child agents, so subagents inherited the stale
pre-fallback key (e.g. a minimax key sent to OpenRouter), causing 401
Missing Authentication errors.

Add self.api_key = ... in both the anthropic_messages and
chat_completions branches of _try_activate_fallback().
