Initial Situation

Previously, the client required explicit calls to initialize() and close() to manage the connection lifecycle. This put the responsibility on the user to ensure proper setup and teardown, increasing the risk of mismanagement, especially in the presence of exceptions.

Insight

Managing resources manually is error-prone and not aligned with modern asynchronous Python best practices. Python provides built-in support for context managers (async with) that can ensure safe and automatic setup and teardown of resources — even when exceptions occur.

Consequence

The initialize() and close() methods have been removed.
Instead, the client now implements the asynchronous context manager protocol (__aenter__ and __aexit__), which automates connection handling.

Usage now requires wrapping the client in an async with block:

async with Client() as client:
    await client.do_something()

## Benefits
Simplifies the API

Reduces the chance of forgetting to close resources

Makes the code more robust and readable
