error-handling skillA
error-handling is agent-read markdown (skill) from jnpiyush/agentx: Implement robust error handling with exceptions, retry logic, circuit breakers, and graceful degradation. Use when designing error handling strategies, implementing retry policies, adding circuit breakers, configuring timeouts, or building health check endpoints..
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.
What the file says
# Error Handling > **Purpose**: Handle failures gracefully with logging, retries, and circuit breakers. > **Goal**: No silent failures, clear error messages, system resilience. > **Note**: For language-specific implementations, see [C# Development](../../languages/csharp/SKILL.md) or [Python Development](../../languages/python/SKILL.md). --- ## When to Use This Skill - Designing error handling strategies - Implementing retry policies with backoff - Adding circuit breakers for external services - Configuring request timeouts - Building health check endpoints ## Prerequisites - Understanding of exception hierarchies in target language - Resilience library available ## Rationalization Table Error handling is where shortcuts hide. Push back against these. | Rationalization | Reality | |-----------------|---------| | "I'll catch `Exception` / `except:` here, narrower types take too long." | Bare catches swallow the bugs you most need to see, including programmer errors. Catch the specific exception types you can actually handle. | …

How to install
mdr add jnpiyush/agentx/error-handling@v1.0.0mdr add jnpiyush/agentx/error-handling@sha256:ea6a325b8c230260Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
