Description
Bug Report: HTTP 403 when downloading schematics
Mod version: 2.2.0 (NeoForge, MC 1.21.1)
Issue: Every attempt to download a schematic via code/URL fails with:
[SchematicDownloadHandler]: Error downloading schematic: Error downloading schematic: HTTP 403
Tested with: code JP7XS / https://createmod.com/schematics/3-cylinder-diesel-engine — the schematic page loads fine in a browser and is public, so it's not a login/permissions issue on the website side.
Reproduction: Tried multiple times over several minutes (all failed identically with HTTP 403), so it doesn't look like a transient network issue on my end.
Suspicion: Possibly a bot/anti-scraping protection (e.g. Cloudflare) on createmod.com's side now rejecting the request the mod sends (missing/changed header, User-Agent, or API format mismatch).

Research direction
Start by locating SchematicDownloadHandler and reproduce the failure with code JP7XS or the linked schematic URL. Inspect the request sent to createmod.com, including its headers and URL format, and compare the response with the browser-accessible page. Done means the example schematic downloads successfully without the HTTP 403 error.
