+* Self-documenting error class for structured logging.
+*
+* Inspired by evlog's structured error approach, PailError extends the native
+* Error class with additional fields that make log entries immediately actionable:
+* - `why`: Explains what caused the failure
+* - `fix`: Suggests how to resolve the issue
+* - `link`: Points to relevant documentation
+* - `status`: HTTP status code for request-related errors
+*
+* These fields are preserved through the logging pipeline and displayed by reporters,
+* making it easier for both humans and AI agents to understand and resolve issues.
+* @example
+* ```typescript
+* import { PailError, createPailError } from "@visulima/pail/error";
+*
+* // Using the class directly
+* throw new PailError({
+*   message: "Payment processing failed",
+*   status: 402,
+*   why: "The customer's card was declined by the payment provider",
+*   fix: "Retry with a different payment method or contact the card issuer",
+*   link: "https://docs.example.com/payments/declined",
+* });
+*
+* // Using the factory function
+* throw createPailError("Connection timeout");
+*
+* // With full options
+* throw createPailError({
+*   message: "Database connection failed",
+*   why: "Connection pool exhausted after 30s timeout",
+*   fix: "Increase pool size or check for connection leaks",
+* });
+* ```
