AI & LLM integration patterns
Call LLM APIs, structure prompts, parse responses, and ship AI features safely.
Circuit Breaker Pattern in Python for LLM API Calls
Implements a circuit breaker class that wraps LLM client calls to fail fast when the service is degrading, then recover automatically after a timeout.
import time
class CircuitBreaker:
def __init__(self, failure_threshold=3, recovery_timeout=5):
self.failure_threshold = failure_threshold
self.recovery_timeout = recovery_timeout
self.failure_count = 0
self.state = "closed"
self.last_failure_time = None
def call(self, …Parse ReAct Logs into Thought Action Observation Steps in Python
Parse a ReAct agent's textual log into structured steps with thought, action, and observation using regex and named tuples.
import re
from collections import namedtuple
ReActStep = namedtuple("ReActStep", ["thought", "action", "observation"])
def parse_react_log(log: str) -> list[ReActStep]:
"""Parse a ReAct log into structured thought/action/observation steps."""
pattern = re.compile(
r"Thought:\s*(?P<thought>.+?)\s*"
