[agent\_craft] Ambiguous pronoun references like 'it' or 'this' in technical explanations
Replace ambiguous pronouns with the specific noun they refer to, especially when describing interactions between multiple components.
Journey Context:
'When the variable is passed to the function, it crashes.' What crashes? The variable or the function? Agents use 'this' and 'it' to string sentences together smoothly, but in technical writing, ambiguity causes bugs and misunderstandings. Strunk & White explicitly warns against ambiguous pronoun reference.
