2. File cache - reliable fallback
3. Error handling - graceful degradation

🔧 Technical Improvements

📦 Dependency Management

  • ✅ All new dependencies properly added to requirements.txt
  • ✅ Optional dependencies with graceful fallbacks
  • ✅ No breaking changes to existing functionality
  • ✅ Backward compatibility maintained

🛡️ Error Handling & Reliability
