Description

I think it would probably be helpful to open a new chapter which collects common error & problems for new lispers. What do you say?
I think it may save time from debugging & googling if we could make something that can auto detect universal error and show common solutions from a db.

Research direction

The issue proposes a new chapter for common errors and an auto-detection system backed by a database, but names no files, tests, or entry points. First define the scope and requirements with maintainers; done would be an agreed direction for the chapter and whether the automated system belongs in this cookbook.
