Problem
Batch callers cannot predict whether a mixed-validity request partially applied, making retries unsafe and accounting difficult to reconcile.
Objective
Deliver a production-quality improvement to batch stream mutation APIs that creates measurable value for correctness, security, reliability, performance, or maintainability.
Implementation scope
- Document atomic versus per-item behavior; return stable item outcomes and correlation IDs; make retries idempotent.
Acceptance criteria
- Mixed batches follow one deterministic contract; successful items are not repeated; item errors contain actionable codes.
Required validation
- Mixed-validity, duplicate, ordering, rollback, and retry integration tests.
- Existing tests and CI remain passing.
- Add regression coverage for the original failure mode.
- Do not weaken, delete, or skip unrelated tests to obtain a green build.
PR quality bar
- Keep the PR focused and explain design tradeoffs, compatibility impact, and test evidence.
- Avoid typo-only, documentation-only, cosmetic-only, or unrelated refactor submissions.
Out of scope
- Broad rewrites not required by the acceptance criteria.
- Changes to unrelated services, contracts, or user flows.
