Credential Rotation
Domain: Security
Motivation
Automatically switching between API keys in a credential pool when one becomes exhausted or rate-limited.
Concrete Example
key1: 50 requests/min limit. At request 51 -> switch to key2. At key2 limit -> key3. When key1 resets (next minute) -> switch back. Continuous rotation ensures no downtime.
Analogy
Shift workers at a 24-hour restaurant - when one worker finishes their shift, another takes over. The restaurant never closes. Credential rotation keeps the agent running 24/7.
