For the team whose demo just met real traffic
Prototype Rescue
When output quality degrades, costs jump, or edge cases pile up, the problem is almost never one prompt. It is architecture, controls, and operating discipline.
- The model behaves in demos but gets strange in production.
- Your engineers are babysitting retries and patching around failures.
- Nobody trusts the workflow enough to let it touch revenue or operations.
Best next step: Rescue diagnostic.
