Improve error messages in helpers

**Description**
Currently controllers lacks proper monitoring support.

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

**Priority**: Low/Medium

Start by locating the controller and helper code, then inspect how monitoring or configuration is currently handled. Clarify which controller events need monitoring, what the configurable options are, and what sensible defaults mean before defining completion criteria and verification steps.
