Source Intelligence

DisclaimerUnofficial, and not affiliated with Anthropic. Nearly all of this is read straight out of what ships: npm bundles, captured prompts, published docs. Anthropic's own notes go in verbatim, marked as theirs. The rest is my reading, and every entry carries the strings behind it. If one looks wrong, vote it down and say why.

Shared test for transient HTTP statuses

Under the hood
Useful2 Signal2
Elsewhere

One rule now decides which server errors count as temporary, so retries behave consistently.

What

One predicate now decides what counts as a temporary outage: any status 500 or above, plus 429 and 408. It marks watch-token startup responses as unavailable and, with the close-code decoder, decides whether a failed live subscribe is a retryable stall.

Evidence

return e !== void 0 && (e >= 500 || e === 429 || e === 408);

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
