rpc-selection-and-resilience

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a playbook for selecting reliable Solana RPC providers and building robust client access that can withstand rate limits, outages, and latency spikes.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Provider comparison across reliability, geo coverage, pricing, and features (webhooks, state compression, etc.).
• Endpoint configuration per use-case (READ_PRIMARY, READ_CACHE, WRITE_TX, WEBSOCKET) with environment-based rotation.
• Client resilience with health checks, auto-failover, request hedging, and backoff strategies.
• Performance optimization via batching, caching, and selective polling.
• Cost management and monitoring for latency and error budgets.

Quick Start

Define endpoints: RPC_READ_PRIMARY, RPC_READ_FALLBACK, RPC_WRITE, RPC_WS. Implement simple health checks and auto-failover rules based on latency and error rate. Enable caching/batching for reads and monitor latency thresholds.
