Unclear How persistentOverloadOnly is turned on is not stated.
What
When Anthropic's servers return a rate-limit error (code 429, meaning too many requests), sessions using persistent retry used to retry forever. A new option, persistentOverloadOnly, changes this. When it is set to true, a rate-limit error no longer triggers endless retries. It goes to the usual handling instead, which may switch to a fallback model or retry a limited number of times.
Why
This changes how long-running or unattended sessions behave when they hit rate limits.
