Keep scans running when APIs fail

System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

It prevents security intelligence scans from stalling when upstream APIs or data sources are unavailable or intermittently failing.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Failover chain per source: Automatically switches to the next available provider (or marks the specific data as skipped/unavailable/pending) so scan execution can continue.
  • Failover chain for LLMs: Uses a prioritized model sequence for main and sub-agents to maintain progress even when specific model endpoints fail.
  • Operational safety controls: Enforces rules like never blocking a scan due to missing sources, scoring with whatever data is available, retrying on the next cycle, and alerting when many sources are down.

Quick Start

Ask the agent to run a scan even if some intelligence APIs are returning errors, and it will apply the configured failover and retry logic automatically.
