[SOLVED] crates.io returning 403

The package was updated a week ago so I am wondering if I am being filtered for some reason:

 pkgctl repo clone --protocol https worker-build

Re: [SOLVED] crates.io returning 403

curl  -vL 'https://crates.io/api/v1/crates/worker-build/0.8.5/download' > /dev/null # 403
curl --user-agent 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/150.0.0.0 Safari/537.36'  -vL 'https://crates.io/api/v1/crates/worker-build/0.8.5/download' > /dev/null

Some useragent filter, possibly anti-clanker…

The crates.io API endpoints are rate-limited and filter by user agent. That package should use the static crate content endpoint instead, see https://crates.io/data-access#crate-content
