  Ghost ships three drop-in browser components that every Ghost theme loads through the
  `{{ghost_head}}` helper rather than through an SDK: Portal (the members signup,
  signin, account and checkout UI), sodo-search (the site search overlay) and comments-ui
  (the member comments thread). They are React bundles published to npm and served from
  Ghost's own CDN at unpkg-style pinned URLs generated by the server, so a site author
  never installs them directly. They are the embeddable UI layer, distinct from the
  Content/Admin API SDKs in packages/ghost-org-packages.yml.

      to a given site is the one bundled with that site's Ghost release, not necessarily
      the npm latest.

notes: >-
  All three are distributed as CDN bundles emitted by the Ghost server rather than as
  packages a consumer installs, so the version a visitor receives is decided by the
  Ghost release running the site. The npm versions above are the registry latest on the
  generated date and are recorded as the upper bound, not as what any particular site
  serves. The standalone TryGhost/sodo-search and TryGhost/comments-ui repositories are
  archived; development moved into the Ghost monorepo under apps/.
