Resiliency principles — fault tolerance, partial failure, failure domains, bulkheads, fail-fast vs fail-soft, health checks, liveness vs readiness probes, idempotency keys, safe retry, deduplication, exactly-once effects, token and leaky buckets, synchronized retries, and 429 responses. Auto-load when isolating dependencies with bulkheads, choosing fail-fast vs fail-soft, configuring health/readiness/liveness probes, making operations safely retryable with idempotency keys or dedup stores…
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
<!-- preload-canary: SWB-PRELOAD-PRINCIPLE-RESILIENCY --> # Resiliency Distributed systems fail partially, not totally. Resilience is the discipline of staying useful when components, networks, or dependencies degrade. ## Failure Domains A failure domain is the set of components that fail together. Name failure domains before designing for them — unnamed domains produce unnamed blast radii. - **Crash failure** — process exits; detectable immediately by the load balancer or orchestrator. - **Slow failure** — process responds but takes too long; the most dangerous mode. Threads and connections fill; the caller eventually crashes too. - **Gray/Byzantine failure** — process returns wrong data or errors intermittently; hardest to detect. - **Partial failure** — some instances or shards fail while others serve normally. Cascading failure: a degraded dependency holds resources long enough that the caller exhausts its own pools, propagating failure upstream. Root cause is almost always unbounded resource sharing across failure domains. ## Bulkheads Named after ship compartments: isolate resource pools so a breach in one dependency does not exhaust resources for all others. …

How to install
mdr add lugassawan/swe-workbench/principle-resiliency@sha256:17423abb079fd258The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260828.71a6399, 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.
