Mukunda Rao KattaI needed a stable cache key for LLM requests. The hard part was the input list order.
A small Rust crate that canonicalizes any LLM request JSON, drops the noise fields per provider, and hashes the result. Stable across runs, stable across SDK versions, stable across map iteration.

A small Rust circuit breaker for LLM calls. Three states, two thresholds, one line of integration. Stops you from paying for failures over and over.
