error-handler

An application error-handling setup with named error types, HTTP status codes, and a central handler.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to define errors such as not found, validation, and unauthorized; add global handling; and represent expected failures with a Result type instead of exceptions.
Why use it?
It replaces scattered generic failures with consistent errors that callers and HTTP clients can understand.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

error-handler scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Generate Error Handling System

  1. Check existing error handling:
grep -rn "catch\|try\|throw\|Error(" src/ --include="*.ts" -l | head -10
grep -rn "class.*Error" src/ --include="*.ts" | head -10
  1. Generate typed error classes:
export class AppError extends Error {
  constructor(
    message: string,
    public readonly statusCode: number,
    public readonly code: string,
    public readonly isOperational = true,
  ) {
    super(message)
    this.name = this.constructor.name
  }
}

export class NotFoundError extends AppError {
  constructor(resource: string) {
    super(`${resource} not found`, 404, 'NOT_FOUND')
  }
}

export class ValidationError extends AppError {
  constructor(details: ZodIssue[]) {
    super('Validation failed', 400, 'VALIDATION_ERROR')
  }
}

export class UnauthorizedError extends AppError {
  constructor() { super('Unauthorized', 401, 'UNAUTHORIZED') }
}
  1. Generate global error handler middleware.

  2. Add Result<T, E> type for functions that can fail without throwing.

  3. Replace generic try/catch blocks with typed errors throughout the codebase.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

error-handler is a skill published in the GitHub repository berkcangumusisik/claude-code-practices (10 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 16 tokens to every session and 316 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
