agentcat-sdk 1.0.0

//! The errors of the current tool call that the result cannot show: a panic of the tool, and an
//! error the tool records with [`capture_error`]. The call path runs the inner handler inside
//! [`scope`] with a fresh [`CaptureSlot`], so `capture_error` reaches the record of that call only.
//! The `error` they give: a panic gives [`panic_error`]; otherwise a captured error replaces the
//! error that the result or the JSON-RPC error would give.

/// turns backtraces on (`RUST_BACKTRACE` or `RUST_LIB_BACKTRACE`, see

/// rmcp turns the error a tool returns into the text of an `is_error` result before `AgentCat`
/// sees it, so the type and the chain are lost. Call this before the tool returns the error:
/// when the call then fails (an `is_error` result or an `Err(ErrorData)`), the recorded error
/// takes the place of the one `AgentCat` reads from the result. When the call succeeds, nothing
/// is reported. When the tool panics, the panic is reported instead. When a tool calls this
/// function more than once, the last error counts. The tool's result and error reach the client
/// unchanged.
///
/// `error` may be a `dyn Error`, for example `&*boxed`. Its recorded type is then the name of the
/// `dyn` type (`dyn core::error::Error`), not that of the value behind it.
///
/// The call is found through a tokio task-local value that `AgentCat` sets while it runs the
/// tool's future. Outside a tool call that `AgentCat` traces, this function does nothing. A task
/// the tool spawns (`tokio::spawn`) or a thread it starts does not belong to the call, so
/// `capture_error` does nothing there either: call it from the tool's own future.
