Description

It'd be nice to have some standard for error messages, to be able to show them to the user in a nicer way than a plain HTTP transcript. Maybe just something along the lines of "use json, "message":"your error text here" for starters?

Research direction

Start by reviewing issue #28 alongside the existing Microsub specification and its current error-response guidance. This needs a decided scope and a documented standard for structured error responses; the issue does not name files, tests, or an implementation entry point.
