AI Model Cascade with Structured Output

A production-ready pattern for integrating AI models (specifically Google Gemini) with automatic fallback, retry logic, structured output via Zod schemas, and comprehensive error handling.

When to use this skill

• Integrating AI/LLM APIs into your application
• Need automatic fallback when models are overloaded or rate-limited
• Want type-safe, structured responses from AI models
• Building features that require reliable AI generation
• Converting Zod schemas to LLM-compatible formats
• Implementing smart/fast generation modes with different model tiers
