Description

Hi, today when I debugged my program call using an unofficial Clojure client, I noticed that the client itself wasn't aware that the openapi specs it use is already outdated. I noticed that despite various functionality improvement in the openapi specs itself the version stays at 2.0.0 for a long time, which causes downstream apps to be oblivious of such being out of sync. Please consider updating the api's version itself when there are functional changes to the api.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the current OpenAPI specification and its version history, focusing on how functional API changes are represented while the version remains 2.0.0. Define the versioning rule for functional specification changes and verify that the resulting version clearly signals updates to downstream clients.
