The Inspector ships as one package with one version, but four client package.jsons each carried their own `version` and were read at runtime (cli.ts, tui App.tsx), and core hardcoded a third, stale value (0.20.0) that the TUI and web actually reported to servers. Consolidate onto the root package.json as the single source of truth. - Add core/node/version.ts: shared, Node-only readInspectorVersion() that walks up to the root package.json (always shipped in the tarball). 100% covered by a new integration test. - CLI and TUI read the version via the shared reader instead of their own manifest; TUI now also passes a real clientIdentity (was falling through to the stale core default). - Drop the `version` field from all four client package.jsons; the root keeps the only version. TUI header name/description become local display constants. - core default client identity: replace the stale 0.20.0 hardcode with a neutral 0.0.0 placeholder (real clients pass clientIdentity; web will source its version from GET /api/config, see #1639). - Stop shipping clients/cli/package.json and clients/tui/package.json (no longer read at runtime) — supersedes the earlier "ship them" fix; update pack:verify and the root README packaging invariants accordingly. - Add core/node/** to the web coverage include so the new module is gated. - Add the shared-code architecture diagram to the root README.

Motivation and Context
The existing Inspector is hard to maintain for a number of reasons. We decided to create a more maintainable Inspector from the ground up, that retains the deterministic boundary of operation, but exposes a plugin architecture.
Track Protocol Conformance
- Identify any gaps in V1 inspector
- Track which features are covered
- Implement to parity and fill gaps
- Provide conformance testing in CI
Improve Maintainability
- Clearer separation of concerns
- Smaller, reusable components
Provide Extensibility
- Plugin SDK / API
- Third parties cand develop/maintain their own plugins for features such as
- LLM usage
- Evals
- Multiple server connections
- Apps playground
- Testing of registry configuration
- Interface with registry
Proper Documentation
- One big README won't cut it anymore
- Published documentation in MDX should
- Render in style of spec
- Kept up to date
- Cover all features
- Discuss troubleshooting strategies
- Provide detailed contribution guidance that explains architecture and expected idioms
