Description
As an example of what this can cause:
thread '<unnamed>' panicked at 'called `Result::unwrap()` on an `Err` value:
Custom { kind: NotFound, error: "Path must be absolute" }', src/curl.rs:142:47
note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` environment variable to display a backtrace```

Research direction
Start in src/curl.rs, especially the unwrap at line 142, and inspect the other unwraps inside the curling functions. Trace how their errors are currently represented and define handling for the shown “Path must be absolute” failure. Done means those curling paths no longer panic through Result::unwrap().
