In @.github/workflows/publish-to-pypi.yml:
- Around line 12-14: The workflow mixes OIDC permissions and legacy token auth:
the permissions block sets id-token: write but the pypa/gh-action-pypi-publish
step still passes user: __token__ and password: ${{ secrets.PYPI_TOKEN }}; pick
one approach and make the config consistent — either remove the user/password
inputs from the pypa/gh-action-pypi-publish step and configure PyPI/Repository
to accept OIDC (keeping permissions: id-token: write), or remove id-token: write
from the permissions block and keep the existing user: __token__ / password: ${{
secrets.PYPI_TOKEN }} usage; update the publish step and permissions accordingly
and ensure references to secrets.PYPI_TOKEN or OIDC setup are adjusted to match
(look for id-token, permissions, pypa/gh-action-pypi-publish, user, password,
secrets.PYPI_TOKEN).

Nitpick comments:
In @.github/workflows/publish-to-pypi.yml:
- Line 16: The checkout step currently uses
actions/checkout@34e114876b0b11c390a56381ad16ebd13914f8d5; update the
actions/checkout invocation to include persist-credentials: false to prevent the
GITHUB_TOKEN from being written into local git config after checkout. Locate the
checkout step (the line with
actions/checkout@34e114876b0b11c390a56381ad16ebd13914f8d5) and add the
persist-credentials: false option under its with: block so credential
persistence is disabled.
- Around line 17-20: The workflow currently only uses the "Set up Python 3.12"
step to publish but does not run any tests or a build on 3.12; add a separate
job (or extend the existing publish job) that runs on ubuntu-latest with a step
using actions/setup-python@... with python-version: "3.12" and add sequential
steps named "Install dependencies" (pip install -r requirements-dev.txt or pip
install -e .), "Run tests" (pytest or your test command), and "Build package"
(python -m build or python setup.py sdist bdist_wheel) so the package is
actually built and tested on Python 3.12 before publishing. Ensure step names
match the existing labels like "Set up Python 3.12" and include failing behavior
if tests/build fail so the publish job is gated.

In @.github/workflows/test.yml:
- Around line 23-25: The checkout steps using actions/checkout (the invocations
with fetch-depth: 2) should explicitly disable credential persistence by adding
persist-credentials: false to each checkout action (both the tests job and the
coverage job checkout invocations) so the GITHUB_TOKEN is not written to the
repo git config or included in artifacts; update the checkout blocks that
reference actions/checkout@34e114876b0b11c390a56381ad16ebd13914f8d5 to include
persist-credentials: false alongside fetch-depth.

In `@openeihttp/__init__.py`:
- Around line 201-206: The error handling block that assumes result["error"] is
a dict with a "message" key is unsafe and can TypeError when process_request()
returns a string error (timeout/ContentTypeError); update the block in
__init__.py to defensively check the shape of result["error"] (use
isinstance(result["error"], dict) and "message" in result["error"]) before
accessing message, otherwise treat result["error"] as a raw message string for
logging and rate-limit detection; keep the same behavior of raising RateLimit
when the message contains "You have exceeded your rate limit." and raise
APIError for other cases, and reference the existing result variable and the
same logging call (_LOGGER.error) so behavior remains consistent.
- Around line 151-154: The current error branch in process_request/result
handling accesses result["error"]["message"] but process_request() sometimes
sets result["error"] to a string for local errors (timeout/ContentTypeError),
which will raise a TypeError; update the check in the block that calls
_LOGGER.error and raise APIError (the code that currently does if "error" in
result -> message = result["error"]["message"] _) to handle both forms: detect
whether result["error"] is a mapping with a "message" key and extract that,
otherwise treat result["error"] as the message string (or str() it), log the
derived message with _LOGGER.error("Error: %s", message), and then raise
APIError as before so both API-format and local error strings are handled
safely.

In `@pyproject.toml`:
- Line 13: The project declares requires-python = ">=3.8" but the classifiers
list is missing the Python 3.8 classifier; update the classifiers block (the
"classifiers" table in pyproject.toml) to include "Programming Language ::
Python :: 3.8" so the metadata matches the requires-python setting and covers
3.8 through the existing 3.9–3.14 entries.

Outside diff comments:
In @.github/workflows/test.yml:
- Around line 36-40: The artifact name collision happens because every matrix
entry uploads the same artifact name "coverage-data"; change the upload step
(named "📤 Upload coverage to Codecov" using actions/upload-artifact@ea165f8...)
to produce a unique name per matrix run (e.g., include the matrix value like
"coverage-data-${{ matrix.python-version }}" or runner info) and then update the
corresponding download step in the later "coverage" job to request the matching
dynamic artifact name (use the same matrix or derive the version used) so each
matrix entry uploads distinct artifacts or alternatively restrict uploads to a
single matrix entry.

In `@openeihttp/__init__.py`:
- Around line 103-108: Fix the typo in the error log message: change the string
passed to _LOGGER.error in the block that logs server response errors (the call
using _LOGGER.error with response.status and message) so "reteiving" is
corrected to "retrieving"; ensure the surrounding arguments (response.status,
message) and the subsequent assignment message = {"error": message} remain
unchanged.

Nitpick comments:
In `@tox.ini`:
- Around line 11-12: The GH Actions matrix was changed so lint and mypy are only
listed under "3.14: py314, lint, mypy" whereas "3.13: py313" no longer runs
those checks; confirm if that change is intentional and acceptable, and if not,
move "lint" and "mypy" back into the 3.13 entry (i.e., make the mappings "3.13:
py313, lint, mypy" and "3.14: py314" or add lint/mypy to both entries) or add a
note in CI docs explaining the deliberate choice to run lint/type-check only on
3.14; update the tox/GH-actions mapping accordingly (look for the lines with
"3.13: py313" and "3.14: py314, lint, mypy").
