Try Catch not working on http actions
I have a http action that has a try catch wrapping ctx.runMutation() and i know i don't have any downstream try catches in any mutation yet i can't catch the error. When i run functions through the frontend nextjs the try catch in nextjs catches these errors. Is there any tricks that help figure this out?

Thank you!
What errors are you seeing this for? Is this an error in the mutation body, a system error?
mutation body like with Uncaught ConvexError: test
im just manually throwing but ive seen it with logic errors too.. it is 7 mutation ts functions deep within my event system (no submutations)
Tempted to have the http action call a action and see if that structure catches it.
I just made a sample app with an http action that called an internal mutation that threw, and I was able to catch the error. If you can get a minimal repro of the issue and share it, that would be helpful
