About
The Cascade Workflow skill empowers Claude to build resilient applications that never truly fail by automating complex error handling and timeout logic. By defining a three-tier hierarchy—Primary (optimal), Secondary (acceptable), and Tertiary (guaranteed)—it ensures that when optimal approaches fail or time out, the system automatically falls back to simpler, more reliable alternatives. This is an essential pattern for managing external API dependencies, fluctuating AI model latency, and mission-critical operations where delivering a degraded result is significantly better than a total system crash.
