Issue	Cause	Solution
Circular dependencies	Wrong layer boundaries	Services depend on SDK layer, never on API layer
Webhook missed	Processing took too long	Return 200 immediately, process async
LeMUR timeout	Too many transcripts	Batch transcript_ids in groups of 10
Streaming disconnect	Network interruption	Implement reconnection in StreamingService
