Better User Experience

• Improved error messages for dependency validation
• Added comprehensive documentation for NRPE remote monitoring setup
• Clarified high-availability setup instructions and trade-offs

Technical Improvements

Code Quality and Architecture

• Refactored check execution logic for better maintainability
• Split retry logic into separate function for cleaner code organization
• Improved concurrent check execution with proper resource management
• Enhanced timeout handling during check retries

Configuration Enhancements

• Better validation for check dependencies
• More descriptive error messages when configuration issues are detected

Documentation Updates

• Added detailed explanation of retry configuration options
• Improved examples showing real-world monitoring scenarios
