Solution: "Push" not "pull".
Give AI a system graph - a live map of your architecture.
PR changes API → Query: "What breaks?"
Answer in milliseconds. Deterministic.

Real example: Slack's 2022 outage.
Health check restart → Cache flush → DB overload → Total failure
No dev could've predicted this cascade. This is a classic "unknown unknown" that PR review misses.

Root cause: Local context blindness.
AI agents "pull" info - decide what to find, when to stop looking - but they're never sure they found everything, and "mostly correct" isn't enough.
Result:
❌ Incomplete analysis
❌ Hallucinations
❌ Missed dependencies

Pro tip: Stop thinking in functions, start thinking in domains. 🎯
Your "Ordering" service should own:
🔗 Order API endpoints
🔄 Background processing workers
🗄️ Order database tables
🔔 Order-related events
One business capability = one service boundary.

The cloud gives you incredible async primitives:
📨 SQS queues for decoupling
🕺 EventBridge for choreography
🪭 SNS for fan-out patterns
🎶 Step Functions for orchestration
However, we keep building REST APIs that block and wait. 🤦♂️

The telltale signs:
⛓️ Service A calls Service B calls Service C in a chain
✖️ One slow function kills the entire API response
🎱 You're debugging "Lambda pinball" at 2 AM
🧊 Cold starts hurt because everything's synchronous
The issue: You're using monolithic thinking patterns for distributed systems.

🔍 Here's what nobody talks about: You can't fix what you can't see! Before implementing these patterns, you need visibility into:
- Which services actually talk to each other
- Where the risky synchronous calls hide
- What data clients really consume

Three battle-tested patterns to save your sanity:
1️⃣ Saga Pattern: Coordinated local transactions with compensating actions.
2️⃣ Circuit Breaker: Fail fast when services struggle, prevent domino effects.
3️⃣ API Gateway/BFF: Stop your frontend from making 47 different API calls!
