Report #17555

[agent\_craft] Agent fails to follow core instructions because the system prompt is bloated with every possible edge case and tool description

Move static tool definitions and lengthy style guides out of the system prompt into a dynamically loaded tool manifest or RAG doc, injecting only the tools relevant to the current sub-task.

Journey Context:
Attention is diluted across the system prompt. If an agent has 20 tools defined but only needs 2 for the current step, the descriptions of the other 18 eat context window and increase the probability of the agent choosing the wrong tool. Dynamic tool routing—loading only the relevant subset of tools into the prompt based on the user's intent—drastically improves tool selection accuracy and reduces token cost.
