Research direction
The merged PR #1595 introduced `context` and `with context` methods. The goal is to apply these methods throughout the SDK's higher level APIs to enrich error messages. Start by examining current error handling patterns in key modules (e.g., in the `fuels core` or `fuels accounts` crate) and adding context where errors are currently bare. Refer to the PR for implementation details and ensure consistency with existing error types.
