 - `grok-build` as a **model id** is not the lab default — use `grok-4.6` (agent type `plan` is separate from model id).

 ## Unreleased
 
+### Profile
+- `install_grok_profile.sh`: `[ui].permission_mode` and `[ui].yolo` are sticky across `--force` (stale 4.5 / alpha / `grok-build` slug repair). `--force-ui` restores product defaults (`always-approve`, `yolo=false`). Template still ships lab-fast approvals; yolo stays false.
+
 ### Installer TUI
 - First-run numbered wizard on Termux: bare `install.sh` (TTY, no size/feature flags) shows a checklist, prints argv, then `exec`s the existing engine. Default is **coding-only** (`--nano --no-de --with-grok --with-completions`). Desktop toggle promotes to `--full --de xfce --browser chromium --with-x11`. `--yes` is the default with no wizard. Flags still skip it. Overlay-only is unchanged. Overlay cache **2026.8.27**. Never prompts for a key.
