aion-server 0.14.1

//! What code is this server (#123).
//!
//! # The gap this closes
//!
//! A running server could not be asked what code it was. The only build
//! identity anywhere was a startup log line carrying `CARGO_PKG_VERSION` — a
//! crate version, which cannot distinguish two builds from different commits of
//! the same version, and which is gone from the terminal by the time anyone
//! needs it.
//!
//! That was measured, not supposed. On 2026-07-31 a live server's running image
//! was found to differ from every preserved copy of "the same" binary — a
//! different inode and a different size — and there was no way to establish
//! which revision was actually serving. The mistake available at that moment
//! was to restart it and call the result a restoration. **An artefact's
//! identity is its content, never its path**; a path is a label recording where
//! a file used to be. This is the one identity a server can state about itself.
//!
//! # 🔴 A STATUS CODE CANNOT VERIFY THIS ENDPOINT EXISTS
//!
//! The server mounts an ops-console SPA whose catch-all serves the app shell for
//! any unmatched path, so that client-side routing works. A consequence, found
//! the hard way on a live probe: **`GET /version` returns `200` on a server that
//! has no such route** — the fallback answered, with `text/html`.
//!
//! So a probe that checks only the status code would report this endpoint
//! present on every image ever built, including the ones it exists to
//! distinguish. **An instrument that cannot fail is not an instrument.**
//!
//! Any probe for build identity must therefore assert on the BODY:
//!
//! ```text
//! curl -s http://host/build | jq -e .commit     # fails on an image without it
//! ```
//!
//! not on `%{http_code}`. [`BuildIdentity`] is `application/json` with a
//! required `commit` field precisely so that check is available and cheap. The
//! same discipline as grepping an artifact for its own verdict rather than
//! trusting a summarised exit.
