  • Implement three-state circuit breaker (Closed/Open/Half-Open) for resilience
  • Add configurable thresholds for failure detection and recovery testing
  • Include timeout-based recovery with exponential backoff integration
  • Thread-safe concurrent access with RWMutex
  • Comprehensive test coverage (14 test cases)
  • Practical examples for LLM APIs, MCP servers, and HTTP tools
  • Full documentation with configuration guidance and best practices

The circuit breaker prevents cascading failures by fast-failing when external services (LLM providers, MCP servers, HTTP tools) are known to be down. This is essential for docker-agent's reliability, reducing unnecessary load during service degradation and improving user experience.

Key features:

  • Automatic recovery testing in half-open state
  • Capacity limits for concurrent test requests
  • Statistics tracking for monitoring
  • Context cancellation support
