 - service unavailable / server/internal error
+- provider-suggested retry wording, including OpenAI `retry your request` failures
 - network/connection/socket failures, refused/closed connections, upstream connect/reset-before-headers, socket hang up, timeout/timed out, fetch failed, terminated, retry delay wording, and unexpected socket close messages
 
 This is string-pattern classification, not typed provider error codes.
