Skill instructions

Error Handling & Diagnostics Use this skill whenever you add, change, or review an error path: a build-time authoring error, a parser/handler failure, a CLI validation error, or anything surfaced to a host (FFI/WASM/Node) or a tool/agent. WebUI errors must be recoverable, actionable, and machine-consumable — for humans and AI agents alike. 1 - Never panic on recoverable input panic = "abort" in the release profile means a panic kills the process instantly — including any FFI/WASM/Node host embedding the framework. Bad template input, bad CLI input, and bad state are recoverable and must return Result, never panic!/unwrap()/expect(). | Situation | Do | |-----------|----| | Malformed template / CSS / route authored by a developer | Return Result with a structured Diagnostic (see §3). | | Missing/invalid CLI input (file, port, flag) | Return a typed CliError (see §6). | | A genuinely impossible internal state | Prefer ? with a typed error; only use unreachable!/expect with a justification
