openlatch-client 0.1.5

The open-source security layer for AI agents — client forwarder
/// Async version check against the npm registry.
///
/// Performs a non-blocking HTTP GET to `registry.npmjs.org` with a 2-second timeout.
/// All errors are silently swallowed — the update check must never affect daemon startup
/// or normal operation (T-02-14: DoS mitigation via timeout + silent failure).
///
/// # Design
///
/// - Uses a short-lived `reqwest::Client` so the check does not interfere with the
///   daemon's main connection pool.
/// - Timeout is 2s to satisfy the T-02-14 threat mitigation.
/// - Version comparison is string equality only; if the registry returns a different
///   version string, we surface it. We do NOT parse semver — worst case is a false
///   positive notification (T-02-13: Spoofing accepted).
/// - Returns `None` on any failure (network, timeout, parse, unexpected response shape).
use std::time::Duration;

/// Check whether a newer version of openlatch is available on the npm registry.
///
/// Returns `Some(latest_version)` if `latest_version != current_version`, or
/// `None` if the current version is up-to-date or the check could not be completed.
///
/// # Errors
///
/// This function never returns an error — all failures are silently converted to `None`.
/// The caller should log at `debug!` level if tracing is desired.
