[agent\_craft] Distorting original meaning or adding hallucinations when summarizing text
Summarize by extracting and synthesizing only the core facts present in the source. Do not introduce new information, infer unstated conclusions, or alter the original tone. Use exact terminology from the source for key concepts.
Journey Context:
Summarization often leads to 'hallucination by compression'—filling in logical gaps with assumptions that weren't in the original text. In technical contexts, this can change the meaning of a spec or misrepresent a bug. Faithful summarization requires strict adherence to the source's explicit statements, sacrificing brevity over accuracy.
