Caveats

As per the humans.txt standard, the year is expected in the YYYY/MM/DD format.

In addition, the general format is expected to be as follows: Last updated: YYYY/MM/DD. The tense of "update" can be present (update) or past (updated). Further, the space between the colon (:) and the date is optional.

If you're having trouble, enable logging: updateHumanstxtDate({ log: true }). If the issue persists please let me know.
