Description
I'm doing some fairly complicated query building with lots of nesting and I hit this error.
It's almost impossible to debug as it doesn't log out any useful information about which parameter triggered the error message.
I believe this error should include some more helpful information such as:
- The type of the keyword
- The value of the keyword
- The position of the keyword within the query

No file, test, or entry point is named. Locate the code that raises “Could not infer helper mode for keyword” and trace the query-building path that supplies the keyword. Done means the error identifies the triggering keyword’s type, value, and position, with tests covering the added information.
