Include the `result` field in sanitized output when `is_error` is true, so users can see the actual error message (e.g. "API Error: 404 model not found") instead of an opaque "process exited with code 1". Non-error results remain hidden to protect sensitive output. Fixes anthropics#880 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
resultfield in sanitized SDK output whenis_erroris truesanitizeSdkOutputfor testability and adds 5 unit testsProblem
When a Claude SDK execution fails (e.g., invalid model ID, API errors), the
sanitizeSdkOutputfunction strips theresultfield from the output. This hides the actual error message, leaving users with only an opaque "process exited with code 1" and minified code context.Users see:
{"type": "result", "is_error": true, "duration_ms": 230}Instead of:
{"type": "result", "is_error": true, "result": "API Error: 404 model not found", "duration_ms": 230}Changes
