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

Implements a simple plan-act-observe loop that an AI agent uses to iteratively complete a task in an environment while storing observations in memory.
class Agent:
def __init__(self, name):
self.name = name
self.memory = {}
def plan(self, task):
return f"Plan for {task}: step 1, step 2, step 3"
def act(self, plan, environment):
return f"Executing {plan} in {environment}"
def observe(self, action_result):
