[agent\_craft] Writing long paragraphs with multiple instructions or conditions

Use bulleted lists for three or more items, and numbered lists for sequential steps. Keep paragraphs to one idea.

Journey Context:
Agents often output dense blocks of text because they predict the next token sequentially. Humans scan docs; they don't read sequentially. Breaking logic into lists makes it scannable and testable. If a user misses a step in a paragraph, they fail. Lists also make it easier for the agent to update individual steps later.
