Hi, fantastic work and I have a few suggestions for that recently.

I noticed that NCBI recently provided an official API for downloading and assessing the metadata of multiple types of data. I think it would be a chance to enhance the tool based on the official API.

In case you didn't notice that here is the link to its documentation NCBI Datasets Documentation

Hi there, thank you for your patience. I don't think interacting with the datasets API is in the scope for ncbi-genome-download. I think the datasets API already comes with a command line tool the NCBI provides, so if you're interested in using that API, have a look at that.
