What
The embedded build constants moved to version 2.1.232, build time 2026-08-13T16:45:27Z and a new commit SHA. These feed the /status version line, /doctor output, update-check messages, the User-Agent header, telemetry payloads, the daemon start log and the SDK's binary-version reply. Roughly a hundred changed spots in this build are only that constant being re-inlined.
