Function: errorBodyMessage()

errorBodyMessage(body): string | undefined

Defined in: index.ts:252

The message an error body carries, across the two shapes REST APIs answer with: { error: 'text' } and { error: { code?, message? } }.

The structured one is why this is read rather than taken: an object handed to new Error() renders as [object Object], and inside a tool handler that string is the whole answer the calling model acts on.

Exported so a tool handler with its own HTTP client renders error bodies exactly as apiCall does. Returns undefined when the body carries no message.
