Description

Description

The /healthz endpoint currently returns the plain text OK!. It should return a JSON payload instead.

Expected behavior

Return:

{ "status": "ok", "version": "<PACKAGE_VERSION>" }

PACKAGE_VERSION is already imported in app.ts, so this should be a small, self-contained change.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Inspect the /healthz endpoint in app.ts, note how PACKAGE VERSION is imported, and understand the current response format. Then update the handler to return a JSON object with status and version.
