PERTAIN_TOReport

Synchronous ingest-time PII scanner (`scanLayer4Sync`) was silently returning `fallback:true` on the majority of requests. Spec budget was 2500ms. Each call opened a fresh TCP+TLS connection to the upstream LLM gateway — cold-start handshake alone consumed ~1.5–2s, leaving <1s for the actual completion. Long prose inputs (>3000 chars) had effectively zero chance of completing within budget. Failures were silent: no logs, no metrics, just `timedOut:true` and a downstream "pending" row. Async sweep masked the breakage. Discovery only happened after adding per-fallback instrumentation.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

the call almost always returned the empty-fallback result.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

for any silent-fallback wrapper around an external LLM / tool call. Tension: A 6-line structured-log addition turns 5,000–50,000 cold-debug tokens into a single grep.
