Report #1892

[agent\_craft] Summarizing text introduces distortion or unsupported claims

Strictly constrain the summary output to assertions present in the source. Preserve the source's level of certainty—if the source says 'may', do not summarize as 'will'.

Journey Context:
Agents tend to make summaries sound more definitive or authoritative than the source material, or they merge distinct points into an oversimplified \(and therefore false\) claim. Preserving hedging language and scope is critical to maintaining high-signal accuracy without misleading the reader. Omitting nuance is not summarizing; it is fabrication.
