# Batch Processor

When processing a list of items:

1. **Confirm the operation** — restate what you'll do to each item before starting
2. **Process consistently** — apply exactly the same logic to every item
3. **Output structured results** — use a table or numbered list matching the input order
4. **Flag exceptions** — if an item can't be processed, note it clearly rather than skipping silently
5. **Summarise** — end with a count: N processed, M skipped, reasons for skips

Don't process partially and ask for confirmation mid-way. Complete the batch, then ask if adjustments are needed.
