+## 2026-02-07 - 1.17.2 - fix(registry)
+improve HTTP fetch retry logging, backoff calculation, and token-cache warning
+
+- Include HTTP method in logs and normalize method to uppercase for consistency
+- Log retry attempts with method, URL and calculated exponential backoff delay
+- Compute and reuse exponential backoff delay variable instead of inline calculation
+- Log error when a 5xx response persists after all retry attempts and when fetch ultimately fails
+- Add a warning log when clearing cached token after a 401 response
+
 ## 2026-02-07 - 1.17.1 - fix(registrycopy)
 add fetchWithRetry wrapper to apply timeouts, retries with exponential backoff, and token cache handling; use it for registry HTTP requests
