 # Changelog
 
+## 2025-08-19 - 4.3.1 - fix(core)
+Improve streaming support and timeout handling; add browser streaming & timeout tests and README clarifications
+
+- core_fetch: accept Uint8Array and Buffer-like bodies; set fetch duplex for ReadableStream bodies so streaming requests work in environments that require duplex
+- core_fetch: implement AbortController-based timeouts and ensure timeouts are cleared on success/error to avoid hanging timers
+- core_node: add explicit request timeout handling (request.setTimeout) and hard-data-cutting timeout tracking with proper timeoutId clear on success/error
+- client: document that raw(streamFunc) is Node-only (not supported in browsers)
+- tests: add browser streaming tests (test/test.streaming.browser.ts) that exercise buffer() and web ReadableStream via stream()
+- tests: add timeout tests (test/test.timeout.ts) to validate clearing timers, enforcing timeouts, and preventing timer leaks across multiple requests
+- docs: update README streaming section to clarify cross-platform behavior of buffer(), stream(), and raw() methods
+
+## 2025-08-18 - 4.3.0 - feat(client/smartrequest)
+Add streaming and raw buffer support to SmartRequest (buffer, stream, raw); update docs and tests
+
+- Add SmartRequest.buffer(data, contentType?) to send Buffer or Uint8Array bodies with Content-Type header.
+- Add SmartRequest.stream(stream, contentType?) to accept Node.js Readable streams or web ReadableStream and set Content-Type when provided.
+- Add SmartRequest.raw(streamFunc) to allow custom raw streaming functions (Node.js only) and a RawStreamFunction type.
+- Wire Node.js stream handling into CoreRequest by passing a requestDataFunc when creating CoreRequest instances.
+- Add comprehensive streaming examples and documentation to README describing buffer/stream/raw usage and streaming methods.
+- Add tests for streaming behavior (test/test.streaming.ts) covering buffer, stream, raw, and Uint8Array usage.
+- Update client exports and plugins to support streaming features and FormData usage where needed.
+
+## 2025-08-18 - 4.2.2 - fix(client)
+Fix CI configuration, prevent socket hangs with auto-drain, and apply various client/core TypeScript fixes and test updates
+
+- CI/workflow updates: switch container IMAGE to code.foss.global/host.today/ht-docker-node:npmci, adjust NPMCI_COMPUTED_REPOURL, and install @ship.zone/npmci instead of @shipzone/npmci
+- Prevent socket hanging by adding automatic draining of unconsumed Node.js response bodies (configurable via options.autoDrain / SmartRequest.autoDrain); added logging when auto-drain runs and updated tests to consume bodies
+- Client improvements: fixes and cleanups in SmartRequest (accept header mapping, formData header handling, options(), pagination helpers, handle429Backoff backoff/Retry-After parsing and callbacks, retry logic and small API ergonomics)
+- Core fixes: fetch and node implementations corrected (buildUrl, fetch options, request/response constructors, stream conversions to web ReadableStream, proper error messages) and consistent exports
+- TypeScript and formatting fixes across many files (consistent trailing commas, object layout, newline fixes, typed function signatures, cleaned up exports and module imports)
+- Package metadata and tooling updates: package.json bug/homepage URLs adjusted to code.foss.global, bumped @git.zone/tstest devDependency, added pnpm overrides field; small .gitignore additions

 - Dynamically loads appropriate implementation based on environment
 - Uses @push.rocks/smartenv for environment detection
 - Exports unified types from core_base
 
 ### Client API (ts/client/)
+
 - SmartRequest: Fluent API with method chaining
 - Returns CoreResponse objects with fetch-like methods
 - Supports pagination, retries, timeouts, and various response types
 
 ### Stream Handling
+
 - `stream()` method always returns web-style ReadableStream<Uint8Array>
 - In Node.js, converts native streams to web streams
 - `streamNode()` available only in Node.js environment for native streams
 - Consistent API across platforms while preserving platform-specific capabilities
 
 ### Binary Request Handling
+
 - Binary requests handled through ArrayBuffer API
 - Response body kept as Buffer/ArrayBuffer without string conversion
 - No automatic transformations applied to binary data
 
 ## Testing
+
 - Use `pnpm test` to run all tests
 - Tests use @git.zone/tstest/tapbundle for assertions
 - Separate test files for Node.js (test.node.ts) and browser (test.browser.ts)

+### Important: Always Consume Response Bodies
+
+**You should always consume response bodies, even if you don't need the data.** Unconsumed response bodies can cause:
+
+- Memory leaks as data accumulates in buffers
+- Socket hanging with keep-alive connections
+- Connection pool exhaustion
+
+```typescript
+// ❌ BAD - Response body is not consumed
+const response = await SmartRequest.create()
+  .url('https://api.example.com/status')
+  .get();
+
+if (response.ok) {
+  console.log('Success!');
+}
+// Socket may hang here!
+
+// ✅ GOOD - Response body is consumed
+const response = await SmartRequest.create()
+  .url('https://api.example.com/status')
+  .get();
+
+if (response.ok) {
+  console.log('Success!');
+}
+await response.text(); // Consume the body even if not needed
+```
+
+In Node.js, SmartRequest automatically drains unconsumed responses to prevent socket hanging, but it's still best practice to explicitly consume response bodies. When auto-drain occurs, you'll see a console log: `Auto-draining unconsumed response body for [URL] (status: [STATUS])`.
+
+You can disable auto-drain if needed:
+
+```typescript
+// Disable auto-drain (not recommended unless you have specific requirements)
+const response = await SmartRequest.create()
+  .url('https://api.example.com/data')
+  .autoDrain(false) // Disable auto-drain
+  .get();

+// Now you MUST consume the body or the socket will hang

+
+#### Streaming Methods
+
+- **`.buffer(data, contentType?)`** - Stream a Buffer or Uint8Array directly
+  - `data`: Buffer (Node.js) or Uint8Array (both platforms) to send
+  - `contentType`: Optional content type (defaults to 'application/octet-stream')
+  - ✅ Works in both Node.js and browsers
+
+- **`.stream(stream, contentType?)`** - Stream from ReadableStream
+  - `stream`: Web ReadableStream (both platforms) or Node.js stream (Node.js only)
+  - `contentType`: Optional content type
+  - ✅ Web ReadableStream works in both Node.js and browsers
+  - ⚠️ Node.js streams only work in Node.js environment
+
+- **`.raw(streamFunc)`** - Advanced control over request streaming
+  - `streamFunc`: Function that receives the raw request object for custom streaming
+  - ❌ **Node.js only** - not supported in browsers
+  - Use for advanced scenarios like chunked transfer encoding
+
+These methods are particularly useful for:
+- Uploading large files without loading them into memory
+- Streaming real-time data to servers
+- Proxying data between services
+- Implementing chunked transfer encoding

+### Rate Limiting (429 Too Many Requests) Handling
+
+The library includes built-in support for handling HTTP 429 (Too Many Requests) responses with intelligent backoff:
+
+```typescript
+import { SmartRequest } from '@push.rocks/smartrequest';
+
+// Simple usage - handle 429 with defaults
+async function fetchWithRateLimitHandling() {
+  const response = await SmartRequest.create()
+    .url('https://api.example.com/data')
+    .handle429Backoff() // Automatically retry on 429
+    .get();
+
+  return await response.json();
+}
+
+// Advanced usage with custom configuration
+async function fetchWithCustomRateLimiting() {
+  const response = await SmartRequest.create()
+    .url('https://api.example.com/data')
+    .handle429Backoff({
+      maxRetries: 5, // Try up to 5 times (default: 3)
+      respectRetryAfter: true, // Honor Retry-After header (default: true)
+      maxWaitTime: 30000, // Max 30 seconds wait (default: 60000)
+      fallbackDelay: 2000, // 2s initial delay if no Retry-After (default: 1000)
+      backoffFactor: 2, // Exponential backoff multiplier (default: 2)
+      onRateLimit: (attempt, waitTime) => {
+        console.log(`Rate limited. Attempt ${attempt}, waiting ${waitTime}ms`);
+      },
+    })
+    .get();
+
+  return await response.json();
+}
+
+// Example: API client with rate limit handling
+class RateLimitedApiClient {
+  private async request(path: string) {
+    return SmartRequest.create()
+      .url(`https://api.example.com${path}`)
+      .handle429Backoff({
+        maxRetries: 3,
+        onRateLimit: (attempt, waitTime) => {
+          console.log(
+            `API rate limit hit. Waiting ${waitTime}ms before retry ${attempt}`,
+          );
+        },
+      });
+  }
+
+  async fetchData(id: string) {
+    const response = await this.request(`/data/${id}`).get();
+    return response.json();
+  }
+}
+```
+
+The rate limiting feature:
+
+- Automatically detects 429 responses and retries with backoff
+- Respects the `Retry-After` header when present (supports both seconds and HTTP date formats)
+- Uses exponential backoff when no `Retry-After` header is provided
+- Allows custom callbacks for monitoring rate limit events
+- Caps maximum wait time to prevent excessive delays
