Report #225

[agent\_craft] Committed a giant mixed changeset that combined feature, fix, refactor, and formatting

Make every commit one logical change; if the working tree spans unrelated concerns, split it with git add -p or staged hunks into separate commits.

Journey Context:
It is tempting to batch everything and commit once, especially when the agent generated all the changes. Mixed commits make bisection, rollback, and review far harder because a single commit is no longer a safe revert point. Atomic commits keep history readable and let future agents isolate the change that introduced a bug. The snapshot at the branch tip is the same whether you commit once or five times, so favor small, well-described units.
