Template
Audit error handling in {code_snippet}. Step 1: Enumerate every operation that can fail: network calls, file I/O, parsing, allocation, external service calls, user input. Step 2: For each failure point, document how the current code handles it: caught, propagated, swallowed, or unhandled. Step 3: For each swallowed or unhandled failure, describe the user-visible consequence and the debugging difficulty it creates. Step 4: Propose specific handling for each gap, distinguishing between recoverable errors (retry, fallback, degrade) and unrecoverable ones (fail fast with context). Step 5: Verify that no proposed handler hides errors that operators need to see.
