Description

They need to be able to pick the right version of the SDKs. Soon we plan on having versioned docs, so docs links would all go to the right version of the docs. But even without that on the docs site side, we can at least display some useful information about the version. It's also a cool way of giving users a chance to find out how much of our stuff is open source without batting them over the head with it unnecessarily.

I think we should have major release number, like v7, v8, and maybe also Omicron and Console commits (with links to GitHub).

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by tracing how the TypeScript console obtains and displays build or release metadata, then clarify which major release and commit links must appear. Done means the console presents the agreed version information with working GitHub links.
