Checkpoint Client

The `checkpoint-client` is a TypeScript client library designed to integrate version checking and security alerting into command-line interface (CLI) tools. It connects to a Checkpoint Server to fetch the latest version information and notify users of any security vulnerabilities relevant to their installed product. Currently, version 1.1.33 is stable, and while no explicit release cadence is detailed, such clients typically update in conjunction with the products they monitor, like Prisma. A key differentiator is its design to be non-intrusive, ensuring "no impact on the developer experience of your CLI," allowing easy integration into various products, and supporting custom styling. As of the current documentation, it exclusively supports the `prisma` product, requiring specific product and version strings, along with unique hashes for CLI and project paths to function correctly.
