Watch out for

LLMs may hallucinate features not present in the source data so always validate output against original attributes before saving.
Batch sizes that are too large can cause token limit errors so keep chunks small enough to fit within context windows comfortably.
Airtable API rate limits can block the run add exponential backoff logic to handle temporary throttling gracefully.
Invalid JSON structures from the LLM will crash the parser so implement a retry mechanism with strict schema enforcement.
