Checkup – Repository Release Tracker (always latest.zip)

Consistent curl-friendly endpoints for latest assets and a cached +json API are the concrete win here — you can script downloads without wrestling with provider-specific quirks. The modular provider architecture (GitHub, GitLab, Forgejo, cgit) and configurable cache show it was designed for lightweight self-hosting, and the AUR package + examples get you running quickly. It’s useful and pragmatic, but it needs private-repo auth/rate-limit handling and some usage/monitoring features to feel essential.
