What problem does it solve?

API clients often struggle with rate limits (429s) and transient failures, leading to failed requests and poor user experiences. This skill provides a structured approach to handling rate limiting, retries, and resilience across languages.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Exponential Backoff with jitter to gracefully recover from transient errors
  • Circuit Breaker to protect downstream services and avoid cascading failures
  • Retry Queue for bulk operations and controlled retry throughput
  • Supports standard rate-limit headers (Retry-After, X-RateLimit-Remaining) to optimize retries

Quick Start

Configure your HTTP client and run a sample flow to observe automatic retries and circuit-breaking in action.
