Current Version (v0.3.0)

✅ Completed

• Error Handling Improvements (December 2024)
  • Implemented robust error handling system with custom error classes
  • Added better error context and stack traces
  • Added error codes for better error identification
  • Implemented proper error recovery mechanisms

🚧 In Progress

• Type Safety
  • Add more TypeScript interfaces and type definitions in types.ts
  • Use stricter TypeScript configurations
  • Add proper return type annotations to all functions
  • Consider using branded types for environment variables
