In the /api/generate route handler, wrap the OpenAI API call in a try/catch that handles:

Timeout errors → return 504 { error: 'Generation timed out', code: 'GENERATION_TIMEOUT' }
Rate limit errors (429) → return 429 { error: 'Service temporarily overloaded', code: 'RATE_LIMITED' }
Invalid or empty response → return 502 { error: 'Document generation failed', code: 'AI_RESPONSE_ERROR' }
Generic errors → return 500 { error: 'Internal error', code: 'INTERNAL_ERROR' }

Log errors with request context (correlation ID, user ID). Never expose OpenAI internals or prompt content to the client.
