Description
We end in raise_for_status(), so the client's contract includes httpx.HTTPStatusError and httpx's version is part of its public API. Callers should not need to know the transport: a client library's job is to speak the domain, and this is the one place it doesn't.

Research direction
Start by locating the Hackbot-client code path that ends in raise_for_status() and inspect how its public errors are handled. Define the client-facing error contract so callers do not need to depend on httpx.HTTPStatusError; done means transport exceptions are no longer exposed through this path.
