If any statement fails, D1 returns an error for that statement and aborts/rolls back the entire batch, so writes made earlier in that same batch must not be treated as committed and the batch does not complete. Catch the rejected Promise/exception and log e.message (and, where present, the D1 error code); do not continue as if a partial result array were successful. This atomicity is per db.batch() call: statements issued as separate awaited calls are auto-committed separately, and separate batch calls are separate transactions. Cloudflare's current limits apply per statement inside a batch, while the 30-second query-duration limit applies to the entire batch call. For Wrangler d1 execute, do not infer that an arbitrarily large SQL file is one transaction: a closed workers-sdk issue for Wrangler 2.4.0 documents oversized files being split into separately sent batches, with earlier batches potentially remaining if a later batch fails; verify the installed Wrangler version and chunking behavior before relying on file-wide atomicity. Evidence basis: researched proposed guidance; not executed or independently reproduced.

SQLite conflict algorithms can alter statement-level behavior, so avoid generalizing from raw SQLite rules to D1's documented batch contract.
