verified

Implement Clay reliability patterns including circuit breakers, idempotency, and graceful degradation. Use when building fault-tolerant Clay integrations, implementing retry strategies, or adding resilience to production Clay services. Trigger with phrases like "clay reliability", "clay circuit breaker", "clay idempotent", "clay resilience", "clay fallback", "clay bulkhead".

Instructions

# Clay Reliability Patterns

## Overview
Production-grade reliability patterns for Clay integrations.

## Prerequisites
- Understanding of circuit breaker pattern
- opossum or similar library installed
- Queue infrastructure for DLQ
- Caching layer for fallbacks

## Circuit Breaker

```typescript
import CircuitBreaker from 'opossum';

const clayBreaker = new CircuitBreaker(
  async (operation: () => Promise<any>) => operation(),
  {
    timeout: 30000,
    errorThresholdPercentage: 50,
    resetTimeout: 30000,
    volumeThreshold: 10,
  }
);

// Events
clayBreaker.on('open', () => {
  console.warn('Clay circuit OPEN - requests failing fast');
  alertOps('Clay circuit breaker opened');
});

clayBreaker.on('halfOpen', () => {
  console.info('Clay circuit HALF-OPEN - testing recovery');
});

clayBreaker.on('close', () => {
  console.info('Clay circuit CLOSED - normal operation');
});

// Usage
async function safeClayCall<T>(fn: () => Promise<T>): Promise<T> {
  return clayBreaker.fire(fn);
}
```

## Idempotency Keys

```typescript
import { v4 as uuidv4 } from 'uuid';
import crypto from 'crypto';

// Generate deterministic idempotency key from input
function generateIdempotencyKey(
  operation: string,
  params: Record<string, any>
): string {
  const data = JSON.stringify({ operation, params });
  return crypto.createHash('sha256').update(data).digest('hex');
}

// Or use random key with storage
class IdempotencyManager {
  private store: Map<string, { key: string; expiresAt: Date }> = new Map();

  getOrCreate(operationId: string): string {
    const existing = this.store.get(operationId);
    if (existing && existing.expiresAt > new Date()) {
      return existing.key;
    }

    const key = uuidv4();
    this.store.set(operationId, {
      key,
      expiresAt: new Date(Date.now() + 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000),
    });
    return key;
  }
}
```

## Bulkhead Pattern

```typescript
import PQueue from 'p-queue';

// Separate queues for different operations
const clayQueues =
