Support search configuration

**Problem**
When working with helpers, the error messages could be more descriptive.

**Suggestion**
Improve error handling and add detailed error messages.

**Context**
This would help with debugging and maintenance.

Start by locating the search-configuration entry point and the helper code that currently produces errors. Read the surrounding command flow to determine which configuration and failure cases the issue covers. Done means the requested search configuration is supported and helper failures provide detailed, useful error messages.
