You do not need heavy orchestration frameworks to build production AI features. Clean, direct HTTP calls with structured schemas provide maximum reliability and performance.
The Production API Blueprint
- Structured Outputs: Use JSON Schema / Tool Calling contracts to guarantee the model returns valid data structures.
- Retry with Jitter: Handle
429 Rate Limitand503 Overloadedresponses with randomized exponential backoff. - Prompt Token Caching: Structure static system instructions at the beginning of prompt payloads to leverage 90% prompt caching discounts.
