Report #16806

[agent\_craft] Summarizing a document by adding inferred context not in the original text, causing distortion

Use extractive anchoring. Ensure every claim maps directly to a specific section of the source text. Qualify inferred implications with 'This implies...' rather than stating them as fact.

Journey Context:
LLMs naturally interpolate and hallucinate. In technical communication, a slight distortion can cause critical bugs. AP Style emphasizes strict attribution to avoid libel/distortion; the same rigor applies to code summaries to prevent misrepresentation of capabilities.
