+ ### Simultaneous Execution Patterns
3030
+
3031
+ When running multiple API checks in parallel (domains + social media), proper timeout coordination and race condition handling are critical for reliable results.
3032
+
3033
+ #### Promise.allSettled for Partial Failure Handling
3034
+
3035
+ Use `Promise.allSettled` instead of `Promise.all` to handle scenarios where some APIs succeed while others fail:
3036
+
3037
+ ```typescript
3038
+ // Simultaneous domain + social checks with partial failure handling
3039
+ async function simultaneousChecksWithPartialFailure(brandName: string) {
3040
+ const TIMEOUT_MS = 10000; // 10 second timeout per check
3041
+
3042
+ // Create timeout wrapper for any promise
3043
+ function withTimeout<T>(promise: Promise<T>, ms: number, name: string): Promise<T> {
3044
+ return Promise.race([
3045
+ promise,
3046
+ new Promise<T>((_, reject) =>
3047
+ setTimeout(() => reject(new Error(`${name} timed out after ${ms}ms`)), ms)
3048
+ )
3049
+ ]);
3050
+ }
3051
+
3052
+ // Execute all checks simultaneously with individual timeouts
3053
+ const results = await Promise.allSettled([
3054
+ withTimeout(
3055
+ searchDomain({ domain_name: brandName, tlds: ["com", "io", "dev"] }),
3056
+ TIMEOUT_MS,
3057
+ "domain_search"
3058
+ ),
3059
+ withTimeout(
3060
+ checkSocials({ name: brandName, platforms: ["github", "twitter", "instagram"] }),
3061
+ TIMEOUT_MS,
3062
+ "social_check"
3063
+ ),
3064
+ withTimeout(
3065
+ suggestDomains({ base_name: brandName, tld: "com", max_suggestions: 5 }),
3066
+ TIMEOUT_MS,
3067

3068
+ )

+ ]);
3070
+

+ // Process results - handle both fulfilled and rejected

+ const [domainResult, socialResult, suggestionResult] = results;
3073
+

+ return {
3075
+ domains: domainResult.status === "fulfilled"

3098
+ #### Timeout Coordination Between Parallel Checks
3099
+

+ Coordinate timeouts across multiple parallel operations with AbortController:
3101
+
