About error-handling-patterns
A skill for applying error-handling practices in application development, debugging, and reliability work. It covers API resilience, retries, circuit breakers, and errors in asynchronous or distributed systems.
Key features
- 01Design resilient API error handling
- 02Improve debugging and error messages
- 03Apply retry and circuit breaker patterns
- 04Handle asynchronous and concurrent errors
- 05Address failures in distributed systems
Use cases
- 01Add error handling to a new feature
- 02Debug production failures
- 03Improve reliability in APIs or distributed services

Limitations
- Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above.
- Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
- Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.
