Walkthrough

The changes add support for handling compressed HTTP response bodies in the file download logic by detecting the Content-Encoding header and using the appropriate decompression reader. The Brotli decompression library is added as an indirect dependency. No changes are made to public APIs or exported function signatures.

Changes

File(s)	Change Summary
go.mod	Added github.com/andybalholm/brotli v1.2.0 as an indirect dependency.
network/downloads.go	Enhanced DownloadFileFromURL to handle gzip, deflate, and Brotli-encoded HTTP responses.

Poem

A bunny hops with nimble cheer,
Now downloads files both far and near—
Gzip, Brotli, flate, oh my!
Compressed or plain, it will not sigh.
With every hop, a byte set free,
Unzipping joy for you and me!
🐇✨

go.mod (1)

52-52: Brotli v1.2.0 is current and secure.

The latest release of github.com/andybalholm/brotli is v1.2.0 (July 1, 2025) and no known vulnerabilities have been reported. No further updates are required.

network/downloads.go (3)

5-6: LGTM - Import additions are appropriate.

The added compression library imports correctly support the new content encoding handling functionality.

Also applies to: 16-16

---

86-86: LGTM - Logging improvement.

Good refactoring to use Msgf instead of Msg(fmt.Sprintf(...)) for more idiomatic logging.

---

187-187: LGTM - Proper use of decompressed reader.

The change from resp.Body to bodyReader correctly uses the decompressed content stream, which should resolve merkle mismatch issues caused by compressed responses.
