Is there a way to optionally depend on core.async from cljs, and check in a fn at runtime? (or not even check, we accept runtime failure in this case, this is for a library trying to provide adapters if core async is present)

my recommendation is to move core.async stuff into a dedicated namespace that the user has to require. it can then extend protocols, multi-methods and so on

otherwise no, there is no conditional require

Or maybe even create two packages. As a library consumer I get nervous when a library requires core.async

Yeah, the point of the exercise is to remove core.async from our library deps.edn, but also provide adapters

I think https://github.com/borkdude/dynaload will work for this
