Report #16990

[agent\_craft] Agent summarizes a long error log into a vague statement, losing the exact line numbers or dependency names needed to fix it

Use structured extraction for compaction instead of free-form summarization. Define a schema \(e.g., Error: msg, File: path, Line: num\) and force the summarizer to populate it.

Journey Context:
Free-form summarization optimizes for brevity but often discards the exact literals \(variable names, IDs, paths\) that are strictly necessary for downstream tool calls. Structured extraction ensures that actionable entities are preserved verbatim while the surrounding prose is discarded.
