[agent\_craft] Inventing causal links when summarizing disconnected facts

Strictly preserve the logical connectives of the source. If the source states 'X. Y.', do not summarize as 'Because X, Y.' Use exact phrasing like 'X. Additionally, Y.'

Journey Context:
Language models naturally optimize for narrative coherence, leading them to hallucinate causal relationships \(e.g., 'therefore', 'because'\) between coincidental facts. This distorts the original signal and can introduce dangerous logical fallacies into technical summaries. Accuracy must supersede narrative flow.
