Enum ContextError 

pub enum ContextError {
    Memory(MemoryError),
    Assembler(AssemblerError),
    Serialize(Error),
    Timeout {
        operation: &'static str,
    },
    ProviderMissing(&'static str),
}

Errors that can occur during agent context-assembly operations.

The caller in zeph-core maps these variants to AgentError via a From impl. Each variant corresponds to one subsystem that the context service touches.

Variants

Memory(MemoryError)

Memory backend returned an error during recall or summary loading.

The agent should degrade gracefully — inject an empty recall section and continue.

Assembler(AssemblerError)

Context assembler in zeph-context returned an error.

Serialize(Error)

Serialization failed (e.g., building a JSON payload for the LLM).

Timeout

An operation timed out (e.g., spreading-activation recall, LLM probe).

Fields

operation: &'static str

Short name of the operation that timed out.

ProviderMissing(&'static str)

A required provider handle was absent (embedding or primary provider not configured).

Trait Implementations

impl Debug for ContextError

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Display for ContextError

fn fmt(&self, __formatter: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Error for ContextError

fn source(&self) -> Option<&(dyn Error + 'static)>

Returns the lower-level source of this error, if any.

fn description(&self) -> &str

👎Deprecated since 1.42.0:

use the Display impl or to_string()

fn cause(&self) -> Option<&dyn Error>

👎Deprecated since 1.33.0:

replaced by Error::source, which can support downcasting

fn provide<'a>(&'a self, request: &mut Request<'a>)

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (error_generic_member_access)

Provides type-based access to context intended for error reports.

impl From<AssemblerError> for ContextError

fn from(source: AssemblerError) -> Self

Converts to this type from the input type.

impl From<Error> for ContextError

fn from(source: Error) -> Self

Converts to this type from the input type.

impl From<MemoryError> for ContextError

fn from(source: MemoryError) -> Self

Converts to this type from the input type.
