- Use Gemini 2.0 Flash for speed and cost efficiency
- Implement in 3 phases for manageable chunks
- Keep token budget system (already working)
- Add caching for performance
- Unit test all new functions before deployment
| Risk | Severity | Mitigation |
|---|---|---|
| Gemini API quota exceeded | High | Budget system + monitoring |
| Analysis takes >10s | High | Caching + incremental processing |
| Inaccurate risk detection | Medium | Prompt optimization + feedback |
| Selection capture unreliable | Medium | Fallback UI + testing |
| Cost overruns | Medium | Token limits + monitoring |
Common Questions Answered:
