openclaw - 💡(How to fix) Fix rate_limit errors do not trigger model fallback [1 participants]

TL;DR

Modify the error handling to trigger the fallback chain when a rate_limit error occurs, in addition to timeout errors.

Guidance

• Review the current implementation of embedded_run_failover_decision and model_fallback_decision to understand how timeout errors are handled.
• Update the condition that triggers embedded_run_failover_decision to include rate_limit errors, ensuring the fallback chain is invoked in such cases.
• Verify that the fallback chain is correctly triggered by simulating rate_limit errors and checking the system's response.
• Test the updated implementation to ensure it handles both rate_limit and timeout errors as expected, invoking the fallback chain in both scenarios.

Example

No explicit code example is provided due to the lack of specific implementation details in the issue.

Notes

The suggested fix assumes that the current implementation of embedded_run_failover_decision and model_fallback_decision is correct and only needs to be extended to handle rate_limit errors. The actual implementation may vary based on the programming language, framework, and specific requirements of the system.

Recommendation

Apply the workaround by modifying the error handling to include rate_limit errors, as this directly addresses the observed issue and is a targeted fix.
