+The CLI now signs in with its own HyperFrames account link, separate from the HeyGen CLI. Run `hyperframes auth login` once after upgrading, and cloud work then bills to your HyperFrames plan.
+
+## Features
+
+- **CLI:** The CLI signs in with its own HyperFrames OAuth client and keeps its login apart from the HeyGen CLI, so one tool's sign-in no longer overwrites the other's. Existing users sign in again once. A `HEYGEN_API_KEY` still works as before ([3e462f427](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/commit/3e462f427723e81352fea956b155848428cf1319), [#6687](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/pull/6687)).
