Description

https://github.com/luckyframework/avram/blob/9a5a921bb05cc3031d9436d2fdc6927606314876/src/avram/operation.cr#L29

If the user passes `params` to `run`, and params *is not* Avram::Paramable because of a user error, this ends up recursively calling itself until the compiler emits a non-helpful error message.

Research direction

Start at src/avram/operation.cr line 29, where Avam::Operation.run handles params. Reproduce the call with a params value that is not Avram::Paramable and inspect why overload resolution recurses. Done means the wrong argument type produces a useful compiler error instead of recursive self-calls.
