HTTP 529 Overloaded

Fix checklist

• →Retry with exponential backoff and jitter — start ~2s.
• →Reduce concurrency while 529s persist; pressure makes it worse.
• →Consider falling back to a different Claude model class, which may have separate capacity.
• →Check status.anthropic.com — sustained 529s usually accompany an incident.

async function fetchWithRetry(url: string, init: RequestInit, maxRetries = 5) {

    // 529 is retryable — back off and try again.
    if (res.status !== 529 || attempt >= maxRetries) return res;
    const retryAfter = Number(res.headers.get("retry-after"));
    const delay = Number.isFinite(retryAfter) && retryAfter > 0
