} from 'tako-sdk';

try {
  const results = await tako.knowledgeSearch(query);
} catch (error) {
  if (error instanceof TakoUnauthorizedException) {
    console.error('Authentication error:', error.message);
  } else if (error instanceof TakoRateLimitException) {
    console.error('Rate limit exceeded:', error.message);
  } else if (error instanceof TakoNotFoundException) {
    console.error('Resource not found:', error.message);
  } else if (error instanceof TakoException) {
    console.error('API error:', error.message);
  } else {
    console.error('Unexpected error:', error);
  }
}

Each exception includes:
