This doesn’t really solve the old problem that there’s no proof the source code you show is the one that runs on Cloudflare. Couldn’t that code run locally?

Yes, I believe It's possible to replicate the same behaviour locally. I'll try to do that in the next update

I encourage developers here and elsewhere to reward each other for the fruits of their labor, instead of expecting a free lunch.
