UnverifiedGraceful failure handling should include setting a maximum number of retries, implementing an Exponential Backoff strategy, designing a Circuit Breaker pattern, and providing a graceful exit path when an invalid state is detected.80% similarUnverifiedControlled failure handling paths: timeouts enter limited retries, empty results return to scope confirmation, parameter errors prompt supplementary input, and full-line errors immediately terminate and escalate to human review.78% similarUnverified终止条件设计不当会导致无限循环（反复调用工具无法收敛）或过早终止（信息不足时就回复）两类故障77% similarUnverifiedException fault tolerance usually relies on retry mechanisms, timeout circuit breaking, state snapshots, and idempotent design to ensure that tasks can recover after failure.77% similarUnverifiedOn failure one should stop immediately rather than use silent retries, because retries consume budget and hide real failures; retry policy should be decided separately and documented.76% similar
