Nothing in the UI said which build was loaded. /api/version has reported version, build and source_commit since the harness started versioning itself apart from the public semver, but the only way to read it was to curl the endpoint — so "is the preview actually running the commit I just merged?" took a terminal to answer. Pins a footer under the settings sidebar nav showing the registered version (plus the harness build when it differs) and the short source commit, with the full hash on hover. It sits outside the nav's scroll container so it stays at the bottom-left, and it is .admin-only, so syncAdminVisibility() hides it from non-admins the same way it hides the Admin nav group. The commit resolves at import via `git rev-parse HEAD` and is the string "unknown" when that fails — a read-only Docker tree with no .git. The footer treats "unknown" as absent and stays hidden when nothing is left to show, rather than printing it. The collapsed rail and the two narrow tab-rail layouts hide it too: neither has a bottom-left to write in.
