chore: TIER-2 READ conductor/code_styleguides/error_handling.md lines 625-690 before Phase 12 — Re-Raise Patterns
Phase 12: ai_client rethrow classification (6 sites).
3 legitimate re-raise patterns from styleguide:
1. Catch + convert + raise as different type (with rom e):
try: json.loads(raw)
except json.JSONDecodeError as e: raise ValueError(f'Invalid JSON: {e}') from e
2. Catch + log + re-raise:
try: do_something()
except Exception as e: logger.exception('failed; will propagate'); raise
3. Catch + cleanup + re-raise (or use try/finally for pure cleanup).
SUSPICIOUS pattern (NOT compliant):
try: do_something()
except Exception: raise
This catches an exception, does nothing with it, and re-raises. The
try/except is dead code; remove it or use Result-based propagation.
Per MUST-DOT-DO #4: 'raise a custom exception class for runtime failures' is forbidden.
Migration rules per Phase 12 plan:
- If site fits Pattern 1/2/3: leave as-is (audit should classify as COMPLIANT)
- If site is SUSPICIOUS (catch + bare raise): MIGRATE to Result[T]
- Do NOT classify as 'suspicious' (= sliming)
- Per-site: test (if migrated), commit
