September 2025: Delivered reliability and clarity in temporary directory handling for the MerginMaps/python-api-client, improving project downloads and cleanup, with robust finalization logic and naming consistency. This involved standardizing temp directory usage across client_pull workflows, renaming attributes (directory -> temp_directory -> tmp_dir), updating finalization code to reference the correct directory, preventing premature deletion of temp dirs on failed downloads, and removing unnecessary comments. The work reduces failure rates in downloads, lowers maintenance cost, and improves developer experience.
