LAX — Latency-Aware Execution

Use this skill when you need to enforce time budgets on agent calls, route to faster models under pressure, or detect SLA violations before they cascade.

Key Operations

import { createLatencyBudget, allocateSlot, createSLAContract, probeLatency, selectRoute } from '@godman-protocols/lax';

// Create a budget for a pipeline step
const budget = createLatencyBudget({ total_ms: 5000, warning_threshold_ms: 3000 });

// Route by SLA tier
const route = selectRoute(budget, availableAgents); // picks fastest within budget

// Probe and record
const probe = probeLatency(agentId, startMs, endMs);
const sla = createSLAContract({ p95_ms: 2000, p99_ms: 4000 });

When to Use

• Multi-step pipelines where one slow agent blocks all downstream
• Choosing between local model (fast) vs cloud model (smart) based on remaining budget
• Detecting which agent caused a timeout in a swarm run

Notes

• Integrate with SIGNAL to broadcast SLA violation events
• Combine with DRS to preempt slow resource allocations
