// latency issues, unintended credential probing, and potential security risks from fallback mechanisms.

//      agentVersion.Id = "<agentName>:<versionNumber>",
//      agentVersion.Version = <versionNumber>,
//      agentVersion.Name = <agentName>

// The AIAgent version can be accessed via the GetService method.
