Latency, throughput, cost and complexity tradeoffs. Real benchmark scaffolds you can clone.
Eight common latency leaks: cold-start prompts, sync waterfalls, oversized contexts, naive retries. Diagnose and fix each one.
Tenant isolation, prompt-injection blast radius, key-per-tenant patterns and quota enforcement.
Three ways to force valid JSON out of a model. Which one bends, breaks, or ships.
Backoff curves, queue patterns, multi-provider fallback. Code that doesn't fall over at 3am.
Prompt caching, semantic caching, embedding caching, response caching. What hits, what misses, what costs more than the API call.
