Class: TerminologyError

The engine's typed error. Carries a stable FatalCode so callers branch on err.code without string-matching the message. Thrown only for FATAL_CODES conditions.

The message is value-free: it names the structural fault (a resource path, a missing field) and never echoes input values.

Example​

import { loadConceptMap, TerminologyError, FATAL_CODES } from "@cosyte/terminology";

try {
  loadConceptMap({ resourceType: "Patient" });
} catch (err) {
  (err as TerminologyError).code === FATAL_CODES.TERM_CONCEPTMAP_MALFORMED; // => true
}
