📋 Problem Description
During production usage, I identified scenarios where JSMon can fail or behave unstably:
Missing files: Script crashes if files in downloads/ directory are removed
Network failures: No automatic retry for temporary connection issues
SSL certificates: Expired/invalid certificates cause crashes
Bot detection: Basic headers may be blocked by anti-scraping systems
No timeouts: Requests can hang indefinitely
✅ Benefits
Zero breaking changes - maintains full backward compatibility
Higher reliability - works even with connectivity issues
Automatic recovery - continues working after downloads folder cleanup
Reduced blocking - realistic headers avoid bot detection
Modern Python - f-strings and best practices
Better logging - clearer error messages
Graceful degradation - continues monitoring even when individual endpoints fail
🧪 Testing
I have implemented and tested these improvements in a production environment where they successfully resolved:
Intermittent network connectivity issues
SSL certificate problems with some monitored endpoints
Accidental deletion of historical files
Detection and blocking by Cloudflare and similar services
🎯 Implementation
I have a complete, tested version ready. I can create a Pull Request if there's interest.
All improvements maintain 100% compatibility with existing configurations and workflows.
