4.2.2c

Automatic v2 direct-download fallback when v3 metadata omits a URL (builds canonical v2 link)

Build selection strictly scoped to the chosen MC version to prevent cross-version mixups (e.g., 1.21.8 → 60)

Plugins Snapshot panel in --stats (plugin count and names when present)

Environment panel in --stats (OS, Python, HTTP UA, Java)

--stats tags the latest build as “(latest)” in the Version/Build line

Recent Changes preview in --stats (first changelog entry for the selected artifact)

Removed an unused variable and stray inner imports in the download path

Reject non-existent paths for read-only commands (--stats, --check-only, --server-version) with EXIT_BAD_PATH

Centralized v2 URL construction helper to avoid composing invalid v3 download paths

Stale-updater cleanup on startup/exit (temp dirs by prefix and *.updating files in server dir)

Concise docstrings for scavenge_stale and error_report
