OpenTelemetry for .NET: minimum viable tracing for production debugging
When incidents span multiple services and logs cannot explain latency: the smallest OpenTelemetry setup that makes production debugging possible without a full rewrite.
Idempotency keys for APIs: stop duplicate orders, emails, and writes
When retries create duplicate side effects, idempotency keys are the only safe fix. This playbook shows how to design keys, store results, and prove duplicates cannot recur.

Outbox pattern: reliable writes + events without the enterprise baggage
When a database write succeeds but the event never arrives, your system is lying to downstream consumers. The outbox pattern fixes this without a distributed transaction or a message broker rewrite.

Performance triage in legacy .NET: find the top 3 bottlenecks fast
When the legacy system is slow and no one knows where to start, a structured triage finds the real bottlenecks in hours, not weeks. This playbook gives you a repeatable method to identify, rank, and fix the top 3 performance killers.
Services
View allRetry policy (backoff + jitter)
Safe retry defaults, stop/retry/escalate rules, and guards that prevent retry storms.
Idempotency + dedupe
Prevent double orders, double emails, double tickets, and duplicated side effects across retries and restarts.
Bot observability
What to log, what to measure, and how to make incidents diagnosable without attaching a debugger to production.
Exchange API hardening (trading bots)
Rate limits, bans, timestamp drift, signature errors, websocket reconnects, and safe order placement.
Selenium hardening (web automation)
Resilient automation with state recovery, safe retries, and debugging signals when the UI changes.
Agent guardrails (AI automation)

Crash Recovery: Reconciliation Loops That Prevent Double Orders
Build crash-proof trading bots with reconciliation loops that detect and correct out-of-sync state on restart—preventing double orders and orphan positions.
Cannot trace requests across services: why correlation IDs die at boundaries in .NET
A production playbook for when logs exist but cannot be joined—correlation IDs die at HttpClient boundaries, jobs, and queues, making incidents unreproducible.
Retries making outages worse: when resilience policies multiply failures in .NET
Retry storms don't look like a bug—they look like good engineering until retries amplify failures and multiply in-flight requests during backpressure.
Requests timing out but CPU normal: thread pool starvation in ASP.NET
When requests time out but CPU is low and restarting fixes it temporarily: how thread pool starvation happens, how to prove queueing, and the smallest fixes that stop repeat incidents.
Kamran Ul Haq
Founder & Lead Engineer
I help teams keep automation and .NET systems stable in production: stop duplicate side effects, fix retry storms, make failures observable, and ship guardrails fast. If you’re dealing with 429s, timeouts, runaway jobs, or “it fails but the logs don’t say why”, I’ll help you stabilize first and then harden so it stays fixed.
