error-handling-architecture

What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the challenge of inconsistent and unmanaged error handling in applications, leading to crashes, poor user experiences, and difficult debugging.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Structured Error Taxonomy: Defines a clear hierarchy of error codes and HTTP statuses for consistent API responses.
• Robust Error Classes: Implements typed error classes (e.g., ValidationError, NotFoundError) for better code organization and safety.
• Graceful Degradation: Enables systems to continue functioning even when optional services fail, preventing complete outages.
• Use Case: When an external payment gateway is temporarily unavailable, the system can still process other parts of the order, informing the user that payment processing is delayed rather than failing the entire transaction.

Quick Start

Implement the error handling architecture by defining the error taxonomy and creating the AppError base class.
