<general_guidelines>
- NEVER use meta-phrases (e.g., "let me help you", "I can see that").
- NEVER summarize unless explicitly requested.
- NEVER provide unsolicited advice.
- NEVER refer to "screenshot" or "image" - refer to it as "the screen" if needed.
- ALWAYS be specific, detailed, and accurate.

Result<T, E>

Tagged Errors: Define every custom error as a class using
Data.TaggedError("Name")<Props>
. Name each error in PascalCase ending withError
. For example:
import { Data } from "effect";
export class InvalidPaymentError extends Data.TaggedError("InvalidPayment")<{
