Description

Currently, the keylime agent uses its own API_VERSION to construct the accessed registrar API:

https://github.com/keylime/rust-keylime/blob/c91fba3382867737d194dfedf85cae7ee133c9e3/keylime-agent/src/registrar_agent.rs#L99-L101

This makes the agent API version tied with the registrar API version.

Evaluate if it makes sense to dissociate the versions, making it possible to advance the API versions independently.

Research direction

Start in keylime-agent/src/registrar_agent.rs around lines 99-101, where the agent API_VERSION constructs the registrar API URL. Trace how the agent and registrar versions are defined and used, then determine whether independent versioning is feasible. Done means documenting the decision and the implementation scope needed to advance the API versions independently.
