+## Circuit Breaker Config Schema
+
+Each `strategy` in a config may define a `cb_config` with the following fields:
+
+- **failure_threshold**: Number of failures after which the circuit opens.
+- **failure_threshold_percentage** *(optional)*: Percentage failure rate to trip the circuit.
+- **cooldown_interval**: Time (in milliseconds) to wait before allowing retries. A minimum of 30 seconds is enforced.
+- **failure_status_codes** *(optional)*: Specific HTTP status codes considered as failures. If not provided, all status codes >500 are considered as failures.
+- **minimum_requests** *(optional)*: Minimum number of requests required before failure rate is evaluated.
+
+<Info>
+- Strategies can inherit `cb_config` from a parent if not set at their level.
+- Targets inherit `cb_config` from their parent strategy.
+</Info>
+
+<Warning>
+Strategies using the `conditional` mode are **not considered** in circuit breaker logic. 
+</Warning>
+
+## Example Config
+
+```json
+{
+	"retry": {
+		"attempts": 3
+	},
+	"strategy": {
+		"mode": "fallback",
+		"cb_config": {
+			"failure_threshold_percentage": 20,
+            "minimum_requests": 10,
+			"cooldown_interval": 60000,
+			"failure_status_codes": [
+				401,
+				429,
+                500,
+			]
+		}
+	},
+	"targets": [
+		{
+			"virtual_key": "virtual-key-1"
+		},
+		{
+			"virtual_key": "virtual-key-2"
+		}
+	]
+}
+```
+
+## Circuit State Evaluation
+
+Circuit breaker logic is evaluated per strategy path. It tracks:
+
+- Number of failures and successes.
+- The time of the first failure.
+- Whether the total requests meet the `minimum_requests` threshold and calculates failure rate as percentage
+
+The circuit is **OPEN**(unhealthy) if:
+- The failure count exceeds the `failure_threshold`, or
+- The failure rate exceeds `failure_threshold_percentage`.
+
+Once **OPEN**, requests to the affected targets are blocked until the `cooldown_interval` has passed.
+
+When the cooldown period ends, the circuit is **CLOSED** automatically, and failure counters are reset.
+
+## Runtime Behavior
+
+- At each strategy level, the circuit breaker evaluates the status of all sibling targets.
+- Unhealthy targets (circuit OPEN) are removed from the target list before strategy execution.
+- If no healthy targets remain, circuit breaker is bypassed and all targets are used for routing.
