- Add extractErrorMessage() helper in src/lib/utils/error.ts - Claude/OpenAI adapters now wrap axios errors with API response details - call_api handler uses extractErrorMessage for better error info - CLI test command displays full error details from API responses

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I think loading the default function in the top of the file and use it here is a much better patten.

Problem
When LLM API calls fail, axios errors were caught but only
err.messagewas displayed — giving generic messages like "Request failed with status code 401" instead of the actual API error details inerr.response.data.Changes
src/lib/utils/error.ts—extractErrorMessage()consistently extracts the best error message from any error (axios or otherwise), preferringerr.response.data.error.message→JSON.stringify(err.response.data)→err.messageextractErrorMessagefor better error reporting in step logs
