What this skill does
Error Handling Patterns Build resilient applications with robust error handling strategies that gracefully handle failures and provide excellent debugging experiences. Use this skill when Implementing error handling in new features Designing error-resilient APIs Debugging production issues Improving application reliability Creating better error messages for users and developers Implementing retry and circuit breaker patterns Handling async/concurrent errors Building fault-tolerant distributed systems Do not use this skill when The task is unrelated to error handling patterns You need a different domain or tool outside this scope Instructions Clarify goals, constraints, and required inputs. Apply relevant best practices and validate outcomes. Provide actionable steps and verification. If detailed examples are required, open resources/implementation-playbook.md. Resources resources/implementation-playbook.md for detailed patterns and examples. 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.
