A practical 2026 guide to LLM API errors: which status codes to retry, how 429 rate limits work, backoff with jitter, and what the SDKs already do for you.
Every day in staging, the same Google Play 404 alert fired. Killing the source would have made it quiet - but quiet and fixed turned out to be two dif
Production error handling for Claude Agent SDK — rate limit errors, network failures, tool call failures, retry strategies with exponential backoff.
Every Claude API error code explained with production retry strategies, exponential backoff implementation, and circuit breaker patterns.
AI-based systems, especially pipelines running in production, constantly carry the risk of errors. I...
When services time out, retrying immediately usually makes things worse. This post shows a better way: exponential back-off with jitter. Simple, works for one client or a thousand. Code example included.
