When Go services call the OpenAI Responses API in production, the real failures are rarely about model quality. Most incidents come from transport instability: weak connection pooling, conflicting timeout layers, and retry storms. This guide gives you a practical baseline: HTTP/2 reuse, layered timeout budgets, bounded retries, and error-budget driven operations. ...
