-# oss-telemetry
-
-A tiny Go client that fires one anonymous "this binary started" ping at a
-central ingest endpoint. Designed to be embedded in your own open-source
-projects so you can see approximate adoption and version spread without
-collecting anything that could identify a user.
-
-This is the **client library only**. The ingest endpoint, server-side
-deduplication, rate limiting, and metrics are out of scope here.
-
-## What it sends
-
-A single HTTP `POST` per call to `Send`:
-
-```json
-{
-  "project": "my-tool",
-  "version": "1.2.3",
-  "ts": 1747782200
-}
-```
-
-No identifiers, no IP, no machine info, no user data. The server dedupes
-incoming requests; the client just fires and forgets.
-
-## Failproof by design
-
-- Never blocks the caller — work runs in a goroutine.
-- Never panics — the goroutine recovers internally.
-- Never returns errors — bad input and network failures are silently dropped.
-- Never retries, never persists state, never reads back.
-- 2-second hard timeout on every request.
-- Zero third-party dependencies (Go stdlib only).
-
-The endpoint is hardcoded and not overridable from consuming code, by design.
-
-## Install
-
-```bash
-go get github.com/lukaszraczylo/oss-telemetry
-```
-
-Requires Go 1.22+.
-
-## Usage
-
-```go
-package main
-
-import (
-    "time"
-
-    telemetry "github.com/lukaszraczylo/oss-telemetry"
-)
-
-const version = "1.2.3"
-
-func main() {
-    telemetry.Send("my-tool", version)
-
-    // ... your program runs ...
-
-    // Only needed for short-lived CLIs that may exit before the goroutine
-    // finishes its POST. Long-running services do not need this.
-    telemetry.Wait(2 * time.Second)
-}
-```
-
-Call `Send` once at boot. Calling it more often just sends more pings; the
-server deduplicates.
-
-## Disabling telemetry
-
-If you ship a binary that imports this library, link your users to this
-section (`https://github.com/lukaszraczylo/oss-telemetry#disabling-telemetry`)
-so they can find the opt-out paths.
-
-Any one of these turns it off:
-
-| Mechanism                                | How                                                              |
-| ---------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| Universal opt-out                        | `DO_NOT_TRACK=1`                                                 |
-| Library-wide opt-out                     | `OSS_TELEMETRY_DISABLED=1`                                       |
-| Project-specific opt-out                 | `<UPPER_PROJECT>_DISABLE_TELEMETRY=1`                            |
-| Programmatic (e.g. behind a `--no-telemetry` flag) | `telemetry.Disable()` before the first `Send`          |
-
-Project-specific env var derivation: uppercase the project name and replace
-`-` with `_`. For `my-tool` the variable is `MY_TOOL_DISABLE_TELEMETRY`.
-
-Truthy values: `1`, `true`, `yes`, `on` (case-insensitive). Anything else is
-treated as "not set".
-
-## Validation rules (silently dropped if violated)
-
-- `project`: matches `^[a-z0-9-]+$`, length 1–64.
-- `version`: matches `^[A-Za-z0-9.+_-]+$`, length 1–32.
-
-Bad input is a no-op — the library never logs, never errors, never crashes.
-
-## API
-
-```go
-// Fire a single ping in the background. Returns immediately.
-func Send(project, version string)
-
-// Suppress all subsequent Send calls in this process. Idempotent.
-func Disable()
-
-// Block until in-flight pings complete or timeout elapses, whichever first.
-// Useful for short-lived CLI processes.
-func Wait(timeout time.Duration)
-```
-
-## Testing
-
-```bash
-go test -race ./...
-```
