Retry wrapper with exponential backoff
You're writing a generic retry wrapper in Go for outbound HTTP calls to a payment provider. You want an AI agent to produce `func WithRetry(ctx, op, policy)` with exponential backoff and jitter. Write the prompt/spec — constraints, edge cases, acceptance criteria — so the agent gets it right first try, given money is involved. Explain what a naive prompt ("retry the request a few times with backoff") gets dangerously wrong here.
plan_retry_sleeps(outcomes: list[str], base_ms: int, cap_ms: int, max_attempts: int, max_elapsed_ms: int) → list[int][["503","503","200"],100,1000,5,10000]out[100,200][["400"],100,1000,5,10000]out[]Treat the AI’s output as a draft to verify, not an answer to trust. Name the specific flaw and the input that triggers it, say how you’d catch it (tests, edge cases, reading critically), and how you’d re-prompt or decompose to get it right.
Vibe & agentic: describe the solution in plain language (or narrate it) and the coach grades your approach.
