+## Re: Issue 1 — WATERFALL libc vs gnu
+
+Good analysis. The Go resolver already handles this correctly — `enumerateTriplets`
+for a Linux host with `libc` (glibc) tries: `gnu`, `musl`, `none`, `""` in that
+order. The WATERFALL fix you described for `host-targets.js` is the Node.js
+equivalent. Go ahead and fix it in the Node code if needed.
+
+For the Go side, no changes needed. The resolver prefers the first libc match
+in the triplet enumeration, and the order already follows the right priority.
+
+## Re: Issue 2 — `.git` URLs shadowing real assets
+
+I've verified this is NOT a problem in the Go resolver. Here's why:
+
+- jq git assets are versions 1.0-1.2 (old)
+- jq binary assets go up to 1.8.1
+- The resolver iterates versions newest-first, so 1.8.1 gets checked first
+- Version 1.8.1 has platform-specific binaries but no git entry
+- The resolver picks the binary, never reaching the git entries
+
+However, if a package had git assets at the SAME version as binaries, the
+triplet enumeration order would still be safe: specific OS (e.g. `darwin`)
+is checked before `""` (empty, which is what git assets have).
+
+For the **legacy API listing** (`/api/releases/` endpoint), the git entries DO
+show up in the unfiltered list. But that's intentional — the listing shows all
+assets, and clients filter by OS/arch/format.
+
+If you're seeing `.git` shadow binaries in the Node.js code, the issue is likely
+in the Node.js resolver/filter logic, not in the cache data.
+
+The Go cache including `.git` source URLs is actually fine — some tools (like
+vim plugins) ARE installed via git clone. The classifier tags them correctly with
+empty OS/Arch/Libc.
