+## 5.215.1
+**`(fix):`** `fern --version` in a project that pins a CLI older than 5.215.0 prints the pinned version again
+instead of failing; it no longer runs the older CLI to do it. When the CLI refuses to run an older
+version, the message now goes to stderr, so scripts that capture stdout (for example
+`$(fern --version)`) no longer pick it up.

 ## 5.215.0
 **`(feat):`** The CLI no longer silently hands off to a version in `fern.config.json` older than 5.215.0. Those
 versions run `npx` from the project directory, so a project could run its own executables in place
