+# smartupdate improvement plan
+
+Status: implemented.
+
+## Goal
+
+Make update checks predictable, cache-safe, and testable without changing the core public API shape.
+
+## Implementation
+
+- Fix CLI cache behavior so cached update information still reports an available update and time-based cache entries expire.
+- Cache both `update-available` and `up-to-date` results so normal repeated CLI runs do not keep hitting the registry.
+- Store cache context with each entry and only reuse cache entries for the same package, current version, and registry.
+- Preserve more useful error types for invalid package names, invalid versions, package lookup failures, and registry failures.
+- Await and catch changelog opening so browser failures do not become unhandled promise rejections.
+- Replace live npm tests with deterministic registry stubs and ephemeral cache storage.
+- Remove unused dependency surface.
+
+## Verification
+
+- Run `pnpm test`.
+- Run `pnpm run build`.
