 ## Changelog
 
+### v4.0.1
+
+- **The installer's first line of user-visible output was six major/minor generations stale.** `scripts/install.sh:53` printed `AI Consultants v2.10 - Installation` even while the public binary, package metadata, npm registry, active checkout, and doctor all reported v4.0.0. That did not change installed bytes or runtime behavior, but it made a successful v4 install look wrong at the exact moment users were deciding whether to trust it.
+- **The banner is now deliberately version-neutral, not dynamically coupled to a tenth version surface.** The curl-piped installer prints before it has cloned or updated the checkout, so sourcing `scripts/config.sh` there would either be impossible on a fresh install or would report the old local version during an update. A static `AI Consultants - Installation` label stays truthful throughout both paths and does not need another release-time rewrite.
+- **The failure is regression-tested through rendered output.** `scripts/test_install.sh` sources the existing define-only path, calls `print_header`, requires the installer label, and rejects `AI Consultants v<major>.<minor>` in the banner. The focused installer suite grows to 47 checks; the full 23-suite gate and ShellCheck pass on the 4.0.1 surfaces.
+
+  Deliberately unchanged: no runtime, model, preset, credential, host command, or minisite copy changes. The showcase site already reflects the ten-consultant v4 panel; after npm serves 4.0.1 it needs only its two mechanical version surfaces bumped.
+
 ### v4.0.0
 
 - **`max_quality` now means the full ten-consultant panel at each exact transport's strongest supported effort and response budget.** GLM and DeepSeek run at `max`; Grok uses its highest supported setting. K3-256k, MiniMax M3, and Qwen3.8-Max remain confined to the maximum tier, with Qwen promoted only when the authenticated Token Plan transport is already configured.

+# Release v4.0.1
+
+**Date:** 2026-08-24
+
+**Type:** Patch — truthful installer presentation
+
+**Previous:** v4.0.0
+
+## Highlights
+
+- The installer no longer displays the obsolete label `AI Consultants v2.10` while installing a 4.x package.
+- The banner is intentionally version-neutral, preventing the same drift in future releases.
+- A hermetic regression test renders the banner and rejects hardcoded package versions.
+
+## What's New
+
+### A truthful installer banner
+
+The curl and git-clone installation paths previously began with a hardcoded `AI Consultants v2.10 - Installation` banner. The installed package, public binary, and runtime were correctly at v4.0.0, but the stale presentation made a successful installation look inconsistent.
+
+The banner now reads simply `AI Consultants - Installation`. This is more reliable than loading the package version dynamically: on a fresh curl-piped install there is no checkout to read yet, while on an update the checkout still contains the old version when the banner is printed.
+
+### Regression coverage
+
+The installer suite now checks the rendered header itself. It requires the version-neutral installer label and fails if a package-style SemVer is hardcoded into that banner again.
+
+## Breaking Changes
+
+None. Installation behavior, files, commands, configuration, credentials, model selection, and runtime output are unchanged.
+
+## Upgrade Guide
+
+```bash
+# npx, after npm publishes 4.0.1
+npx ai-consultants version
+
+# active git-clone installation
+cd ~/.claude/skills/ai-consultants && git pull
+```
+
+No configuration or authentication migration is required.
+
+## Verification
+
+- Installer-focused suite: 47/47 checks
+- Full local gate: 23/23 suites
+- ShellCheck: passed
+- Installer banner rendered directly from the shipped helper: passed
+- Showcase site audit: ten consultant cards, no Cursor consultant card, correct v4 preset counts, ready for the mechanical 4.0.1 sync after npm publication
