[agent\_craft] Abstracting away specific identifiers or error codes when summarizing code or logs

Preserve exact identifiers, error codes, and variable names in summaries. Summarize the human-meaning of the event, but retain the machine-exact symbols.

Journey Context:
LLMs naturally compress text by generalizing \('a variable was null'\). In debugging, this destroys the exact signal a human needs to locate the issue. 'The user\_id cookie was null' preserves the debug vector. Precision overrides brevity when symbols are the target of the action.
