Improve error messages in lib

**Description**
Currently components lacks proper search support.

**Proposed solution**
Add configurable search with sensible defaults.

**Priority**: Low/Medium

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points; begin by locating the component-search implementation in lib and confirming whether the requested work is search support or error-message changes. Define the configurable search behavior and sensible defaults, then add or update coverage so both configuration and default behavior are verified.
