error-stack 0.8.0

A context-aware error-handling library that supports arbitrary attached user data
Documentation
# Change Log

All notable changes to `error-stack` will be documented in this file.

## Planned

- Add `OptionExt` to support `Option::ok_or_report`. ([#667](https://github.com/hashintel/hash/issues/667))
- Support for [`defmt`](https://defmt.ferrous-systems.com).
- Better support for serialization and deserialization of `Report`.

## [0.8.0](https://github.com/hashintel/hash/tree/error-stack%400.8.0/libs/error-stack) - 2026-07-03

### Breaking Changes

- Fix a soundness hole in `Report::frames_mut`: the returned iterator handed out `&mut Frame`s with independent lifetimes, so a frame and one of its sources (via `Frame::sources_mut`) could be borrowed mutably at the same time — undefined behavior triggerable from safe code, up to segfaults. `frames_mut` now takes a visitor closure (`FnMut(&mut Frame) -> ControlFlow<()>`) instead of returning an iterator, and the `FramesMut` type has been removed. `Report::downcast_mut` is unaffected. ([#8946](https://github.com/hashintel/hash/pull/8946))

## [0.7.1](https://github.com/hashintel/hash/tree/error-stack%400.7.1/libs/error-stack) - 2026-05-27

### Fixes

- Gate `sink` imports behind `cfg(nightly)` so `error-stack` compiles on stable Rust with the `unstable` feature enabled. ([#8768](https://github.com/hashintel/hash/pull/8768))

## [0.7.0](https://github.com/hashintel/hash/tree/error-stack%400.7.0/libs/error-stack) - 2026-03-26

### Features

- Support trailing commans in `bail!` macro. ([#7772](https://github.com/hashintel/hash/pull/7772))

### Breaking Changes

- Remove deprecated `Context` ([#7763](https://github.com/hashintel/hash/pull/7763))
- Remove deprecated `report!` ([#7763](https://github.com/hashintel/hash/pull/7763))
- Remove deprecated `Report::{attach_lazy, attach_printable, attach_printable_lazy}` ([#7763](https://github.com/hashintel/hash/pull/7763))
- Depend on `serde_core` instead of `serde`. ([#7909](https://github.com/hashintel/hash/pull/7909))

## [0.6.0](https://github.com/hashintel/hash/tree/error-stack%400.6.0/libs/error-stack) - 2025-08-30

### Features

- Report has been split into `Report<C>` and `Report<[C]>` to distinguish between a group of related errors and a single error. These errors can still be nested. ([#5047](https://github.com/hashintel/hash/pull/5047))
- Introduce a new `unstable` flag, which is used to enable unstable features, these features are not covered by semver and may be modified or removed at any time. ([#5181](https://github.com/hashintel/hash/pull/5181))
- Reintroduce a new `IntoReport` trait, which is used to determine when a type can be converted to a `Report`. This allows the usage of errors more idiomatically in traits, such as `type Error: IntoReport`. ([#6738](https://github.com/hashintel/hash/pull/6738))

### Breaking Changes

- Rename `attach[_lazy]` to `attach_opaque[_with]` and `attach_printable[_lazy]` to `attach[_with]`. ([#7753](https://github.com/hashintel/hash/pull/7753))
- Set the MSRV to 1.83 ([#5333](https://github.com/hashintel/hash/pull/5333))
- `Extend` is no longer implemented by `Report<C>`, instead it is implemented on `Report<[C]>`, either use `From` or `Report::expand` to convert between `Report<C>` into `Report<[C]>`. ([#5047](https://github.com/hashintel/hash/pull/5047))
- `extend_one` has been renamed to `push` and is only implemented on `Report<[C]>`. ([#5047](https://github.com/hashintel/hash/pull/5047))
- `bail!(report,)` has been removed, one must now use `bail!(report)`. This is in preparation for the unstable `bail!` macro that allows to construct `Report<[C]>`. ([#5047](https://github.com/hashintel/hash/pull/5047))

### Deprecations

- `Context`: Use `core::error::Error` instead ([#5533](https://github.com/hashintel/hash/pull/5533))
- `Result<T, C>`: Use `core::result::Result<T, Report<C>>` instead ([#5533](https://github.com/hashintel/hash/pull/5533))
- `report!`, use `IntoReport::into_report` instead. ([#6738](https://github.com/hashintel/hash/pull/6738))
