Question 124 of 150
You built an integration where Claude can call a get_stock_price tool. During a conversation, Claude requests the tool, but your backend API returns a 503 error because the pricing service is temporarily down. You want Claude to handle this gracefully—ideally by informing the user or retrying later—rather than fabricating a price. How should you communicate this failure back to Claude in the request/response loop?
