Implementation Notes
The pkg/constants/constants.go file has been updated with the new version. The change requires running make recompile to regenerate workflow lock files.
Note: During implementation, make recompile failed due to Go version requirements (go.mod requires go >= 1.25.0 but runner has 1.22.12). This is a known environment limitation and does not affect the validity of the version update itself.
