common-error-handling
Cross-cutting standards for error design, response shapes, error codes, and boundary placement across API, domain, and infrastructure layers. Use when defining error hierarchies, wrapping exceptions, building standardized error responses, or placing error boundaries in layered architectures.

Error Handling Standards
Priority: P1 (HIGH)
Error Architecture
- API Layer: Map domain errors to HTTP responses globally.
- Domain Layer: Throw pure business errors. NO HTTP status codes here.
- Infra Layer: Wrap 3rd-party exceptions. NOT leak raw DB errors to API.
- Standard Shape: APIs must return standardized JSON envelope:
See implementation examples for standard error response shape.
Error Mechanics
- Wrap: Add context (
fmt.Errorf("process: %w", err),new Error('msg', { cause })). - Replace: Only when original error leaks sensitive details.
- Error Codes: Use
SCREAMING_SNAKE_CASEIDs (ORDER_PAYMENT_FAILED).
Anti-Patterns
- Swallowing Errors: Never
catch(e) {}without logging or re-throwing. - Never silently ignore an error: an empty catch must become an explicit log, handling branch, returned error, or rethrow.
- Stack Traces: Never expose stack traces in API responses.
- Generic 500s: Use
400with specific details for validation instead of 500.

Failure-handling checklist
- Never swallow errors: do not use an empty
catchor silently ignore a failure. Log, wrap, rethrow, or map it deliberately at the correct boundary.
