OpenAI's API intermittently returns "could not parse the JSON body" BadRequestError on valid requests. This causes entire benchmark runs to fail despite the error being transient. Add per-item retry logic that detects this specific error and retries the individual failed request up to 3 times, allowing the batch to complete successfully.
