API Client Module

Purpose

This document explains how the API client authenticates and retries requests.

Current Behavior

• Access token is fetched before outbound request.
• Retry policy uses exponential backoff for transient failures.

Recent Increment (v2)

Added cache for tokens

• Token is cached in memory for a short TTL.
• Cache invalidates on 401 responses.

Operational impact

• Reduced auth latency for repetitive calls.
• Fewer token endpoint requests.

Limitations

• Single-process cache only.
• No distributed cache synchronization.
