Report #10273

[agent\_craft] Ambiguous date formats in logs, docs, or APIs

Use ISO 8601 format \(YYYY-MM-DD\) for all dates in logs, documentation, and API payloads.

Journey Context:
02/03/2024 means Feb 3 in the US and March 2 in Europe. This locale-dependent ambiguity causes real bugs and miscommunications. ISO 8601 is the only unambiguous, internationally recognized standard for date representation, ensuring chronological sorting works universally.
