Applies consistent error handling: typed errors, operational vs programmer errors, API error envelopes, HTTP status mapping, user-facing messages. Use when adding or refactoring error handling or designing an error contract.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Error Handling Patterns Apply consistent patterns for throwing, catching, logging, and surfacing errors so failures are predictable and debuggable without leaking internals. ## When to Activate - Implementing or refactoring error handling in an API or app - User asks for "error handling", "how to handle errors", or "consistent errors" - Reviewing code for proper failure handling - Defining or documenting error contract for a service or API ## Core principles - Operational vs programmer errors — Classify first. Operational failures (network timeout, invalid input, missing record) are expected: handle, retry, or surface them. Programmer errors (undefined access, broken invariant) are bugs: crash loudly or restart the process rather than limping on with corrupted state. …

How to install
mdr add khasky/awesome-agent-skills/awesome-error-standards@sha256:c05c4e79b6cd8166The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261020.58ea4e8, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
