fix-bad-practices

Fix bare except pass and silent failures by replacing them with specific exception handling, adding logging, and enforcing fail-fast behavior to ensure errors are visible and traceable.

The best way to refactor broad exception handling is to introduce precise errors, preserve stack traces, and apply patterns that require specific exceptions instead of catching all exceptions generically.

Stop returning None on error by implementing fail-fast patterns that raise specific exceptions and adding logging to make failures immediately visible during code quality refactoring.

Yes, you can run code-quality audits to identify issues like missing logging, broad exception handling, and silent continues, then apply systematic fixes to improve codebase quality.

Add logging and test coverage during refactoring when addressing silent failures, ensuring failures are traceable, and documenting changes to meet code quality improvement or onboarding standards.

Your code silently continues because of bad practices like bare except or returning None on error, which should be refactored to enforce fail-fast behavior and specific exception handling.
