Support for error codes about git-credential-keepassxc HOT 2 OPEN

Okay so my issue is kind of an XY type: I want to make sure that the database is unlocked when I retrieve passwords from within isync I use for my email, so my sync script would need to detect that the failure was caused by the fact that no database is unlocked, and that would enable it to not start isync in the first place (I dont want it to run with locked database because it wastes resources and creates a pop up for each failed login, prompting me to type in the password).
In the end I worked around this issue by creating a test entry that is guaranteed to be available, so if that request fails, my script knows that the database is locked and it does not invoke isync.
I know, if it really is that bad to implement, I think we might consider this issue a 'nice to have' and focus on other matters (close this issue if you think alike), but if you find a good opportunity to implement different error codes, I would be happy to avoid that dirty hack ;)
Anyhow, thanks for considering my request and have a nice day :)

It's actually not that easy... I use https://github.com/dtolnay/anyhow for error handling which is specifically designed for use cases such as CLI tools, where you don't care about what went wrong, just care about whether it went wrong.

Is there a particular use case you can't work around without this atm? Or is this more of a 'nice to have' you have in mind?
