All three components now report <major>.<minor>.<build> plus a 7-char commit
and a build timestamp. The backend had been pinned at a hand-written 1.0.0
since inception and starts at 1.5.1000; the MCP server's package.json version
was bumped by hand and starts at 1.5.300, and it now reports its own commit on
/health instead of only the documentation bundle's.
The build number keeps coming from a counter blob reserved before the build
with ETag-CAS, but there is now one implementation instead of two copies:
.github/scripts/Request-BuildNumber.ps1, called by all three workflows and by
the local build.ps1. It lives under .github/ because scripts/Deployment/ is
gitignored (those scripts carry SAS tokens) and would therefore be absent from
a CI checkout; scripts/Build/ and scripts/Release/ are shadowed by the
[Bb]uild/ and [Rr]elease/ artifact ignores.
The counter cannot be replaced by the published manifest, which is the obvious
simplification to reach for: version.json is written only on stable publish, so
two consecutive dev builds would derive the same number and the second would
overwrite the first's artifact. git rev-list --count fails the same way, two
builds of one commit collide.
Both deploy workflows now poll their health endpoint until it reports exactly
the version and commit just deployed, and publish versions/<component>.json
only then. A green deploy step alone means the package was accepted, not that
it is being served -- so a manifest that disagrees with the live endpoint now
means the running instance drifted (rollback, stale revision) rather than a
pipeline that stopped halfway. The agent manifest gains the same commit and
buildUtc fields additively; the bootstrap reads it by field name, so older
installers ignore them, and sha256/bootstrapVersion stay untouched.
Requires the versions container plus AZURE_BLOB_VERSIONS_SAS_TOKEN and the two
seeded counters (backend 999, mcp 299) before the first deploy run.
