Currently, when an API call fails due to transient network issues — like timeouts or incomplete chunked reads — the flow fails entirely without retrying. This is especially problematic for long prompts or complex chains, where a single temporary glitch can break the entire automation.
Suggested Feature:
Add a "Retry on Failure" toggle to agent steps that involve external API calls, especially AI models. This should include:
Number of retry attempts
Delay between retries (ideally exponential backoff)
Optional retry only on specific error types (e.g., APIConnectionError, 5xx errors)
Benefits:
Greatly improves automation stability
Prevents random AI response failures from breaking mission-critical flows
Saves cost and time by avoiding full reruns
Already standard in many automation platforms (e.g., Zapier, Make, n8n)
