Developed ETag-based file integrity and an optional :etag checksum type for HTTP-sourced files in the OpenVoxProject/puppet repository, focusing on backend reliability and efficient asset management. Leveraging Ruby, Puppet, and Ruby on Rails, the work introduced an opt-in mechanism for ETag support, allowing gradual adoption while minimizing disruption. The implementation prioritized explicit checksum headers over ETags, refined error handling in the catalog compiler, and improved file type specifications. Unit tests were updated to reflect the new behavior, ensuring stability across continuous integration. These enhancements reduced unnecessary Puppet runs against CDN-hosted assets and aligned file metadata handling with HTTP caching semantics.

Introduced an opt-in mechanism for ETag support, refined checksum precedence (explicit headers take priority over ETag), and updated tests to reflect the new behavior. These changes reduce unnecessary Puppet runs against CDN-hosted assets, improve reliability of file metadata, and align with HTTP caching semantics.
