Summary

The Ask AI `get_latest_version` tool only returned the Streaming docs version (major.minor), so "what is the latest Redpanda version?" got an answer like `26.2` instead of `26.2.1`. It now returns:

  • `latestRedpandaStreamingPatchRelease` (for example `26.2.1`)
  • `latestConsoleRelease`, `latestConnectRelease`, `latestOperatorRelease`, `latestHelmChartRelease`

The existing `latestRedpandaStreamingVersion` and `currentPage` fields are unchanged. The tool description now covers all five products and tells the model to answer with the patch release. The old wording said Connect was versioned separately, which steered the model away from using the tool for Connect.

Where the versions come from

The `version-fetcher` extension already resolves these at build time and sets them as attributes on each component's latest version. It uses the same lookup as `doc-tools get-redpanda-version`. That lookup needs a GitHub token for the private `streaming-enterprise` repo, so it can't run in the browser.

`head-meta.hbs` publishes the attributes as new meta tags (`latest-*-release`). It doesn't reuse `latest-redpanda-tag`, because on some pages that holds the properties-JSON tag or the page's own version tag. If an attribute is missing, its tag is left out and the tool returns `null` for that product.

The values are only as current as the last docs-site build. That matches every `{latest-*}` attribute in the docs content.

Not covered

The Ask AI drawer on the Bump.sh API pages won't get these fields. That header is compiled once at build time from `antora.yml`, so a patch number stored there would go out of date after the next release. The new fields return `null` there.

Testing

  • `gulp lint` passes.
  • Rendered `head-meta.hbs` against the preview UI model and against made-up example attributes, with the Helm chart version left out on purpose. Each tag rendered correctly, and the missing one was skipped.
  • Not yet tested in a live Ask AI chat.

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

get_latest_version only returned the Streaming docs version (major.minor),
so "what is the latest Redpanda version" got an answer like 26.2 instead of
26.2.1. It now also returns the latest Streaming patch release and the
latest Console, Connect, Operator, and Helm chart releases.

The values come from the attributes the version-fetcher extension sets at
build time, the same lookup doc-tools get-redpanda-version uses. That lookup
needs a GitHub token for a private repo, so it cannot run in the browser.
head-meta.hbs publishes them as new meta tags rather than reusing
latest-redpanda-tag, which can hold the properties-JSON tag or the page's
own version tag.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The page template now emits release metadata tags when the corresponding latest-component attributes are present. get_latest_version reads those tags and returns release values for Redpanda Streaming, Console, Connect, Operator, and Helm charts. It reports the Streaming docs version separately from the Streaming patch release. Its description excludes Redpanda Cloud and Agentic Data Plane.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 9a454

The version tool may omit an available Connect release, reducing the accuracy of its product-version answers. This is a bounded issue.

Review details

Systems and components

  • observed — src (service) was modified; 2 changed files map to changed impact.

Before / after behavior

  • observed — Modified behavior in src/js/react/agentTools.js: Added readRelease, which reads a named meta tag’s content and removes a leading v, returning null when the tag has no content.
  • observed — Modified behavior in src/js/react/agentTools.js: Expanded the tool description from covering only Redpanda Streaming to covering the Streaming docs version and patch release, plus Console, Connect, Operator, and Helm chart releases; it now excludes Cloud and Agentic Data Plane.
  • observed — Modified behavior in src/js/react/agentTools.js: Added separate result fields for the latest Streaming patch release, Console, Connect, Operator, and Helm chart releases, populated from their respective metadata tags.
  • observed — Modified behavior in src/partials/head-meta.hbs: The template adds conditional release meta tags sourced from the latest component’s AsciiDoc attributes: Redpanda, Console, Connect, Operator, and Helm chart tags are emitted only when their respective attributes are present.

Read latest-connect-version from the Connect component.

The release block reads attributes from the latest Streaming component, but the component model places latest-connect-version on the latest Connect component. This can omit latest-connect-release even when a Connect release exists.
