Research direction

Start by identifying the Scout methods that can propagate internal exceptions and trace how they are invoked by supported frameworks. Clarify the intended exception boundary and verify that user code continues running when an internal Scout exception occurs.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

As a end user, I never expect Scout to crash my code if an internal exception occurs, so I would love a global try/except Exception around Scout methods.
