Hi, is there an option for the Cake\View\Helper\HtmlHelper::script() helper, to append a version like foo.js?V=1.2.3 or an other random string to avoid caching issues?

Did you check the UrlHelper regarding assetTimestamp() function?

You mean this? https://book.cakephp.org/5/en/views/helpers/html.html#changing-the-tags-output-by-htmlhelper

The role of the HtmlHelper in CakePHP is to make HTML-related options easier, faster, and more resilient to change.

I guess the docs must be really bad about this one, the search wouldnt give it to you either
https://book.cakephp.org/5/en/views/helpers/url.html#namespace-Cake\View\Helper also doesnt
But then just check the source code :)

Usage of https://github.com/cakephp/cakephp/blob/33626a03197758f30a8ce8c2e0a75ed8ddbce40a/src/Routing/Asset.php#L239 in that context
