the pattern i keep coming back to is treating the LLM as a fallible component, not a reliable one. build retry logic and validation layers around every call or you'll have a bad time in prod

has anyone actually dealt with prompt versioning at scale? like when you have 40+ prompts across an app and the model gets updated, half your flows break silently. thats the part nobody talks about

prompt versioning - we just treat them like code, stored in git with semantic versions tied to model versions. painful to set up but saved us twice already

streaming responses change the whole UX architecture too. you cant just await a response and render, you need to rethink state management pretty much from scratch
