Report #17365

[agent\_craft] Summarizing conversation history loses critical variable names or exact IDs

Use structured compaction templates that enforce extraction of exact literals \(IDs, filenames, variable names\) into a dedicated 'Facts' or 'Scratchpad' section, separate from the narrative summary of actions taken.

Journey Context:
Generic summarization \(e.g., 'I created a file and added a function'\) destroys the exactness needed for code generation. If an agent summarizes away the exact function name or API endpoint, it will hallucinate a new one in the next step. By separating the summary into 'Narrative' \(what was done\) and 'State' \(exact values, paths, names\), you preserve the deterministic facts while compressing the semantic history.
