Changelog
10
Route API calls directly to Sendbox again. co; that was a path-MTU issue and has been fixed on the Sendbox server, so the extra hop is no longer needed.
Shipment updates from Sendbox that do not correspond to a final outcome (accepted, delivered, rejected, cancelled) now move the order to a new “In transit” status instead of being ignored. Orders that are already completed, cancelled or refunded are left alone and the update is recorded as an order note.

co by routing API calls through a neutral gateway hostname.

Fix checkout intermittently showing “no shipping options”: stop fetching the Sendbox profile on every rate calculation (it was a blocking call that timed out under load and aborted the quote before it ran). Origin name/phone now read from saved settings. On a transient API failure the cached empty result is cleared so checkout recalculates instead of staying stuck.
Added request timing to the logs and lowered the API timeout.
7
Fix cart-time shipping quote: include the items[] array in the payload sent to Sendbox. Previously the cart quote omitted items entirely, causing Sendbox to default item-type pricing.
