[agent\_craft] Long-form explanations bury the actual fix or conclusion at the bottom of the output

Put the conclusion, fix, or TL;DR in the very first sentence. Follow with supporting context, then detailed steps.

Journey Context:
Agents often narrate their process chronologically \('I checked X, then Y, then found Z'\). Humans scan for the answer first. AP style and journalistic inverted pyramid prioritize the most critical information first so the reader can stop reading whenever they have enough context. Shifting from chronological to inverted-pyramid structure drastically reduces time-to-value.
