FAILURE CASE

What did not work

Generic examples produced configuration drift. Curated templates and schema validation made outputs more predictable.

SECURITY BOUNDARY

Public-safe by design

This case study exposes patterns, not employer architecture. It uses synthetic data, no client identifiers, no internal prompts, no proprietary datasets, and no production endpoints.
