[agent\_craft] Writing commit messages that only state what changed, not why

Structure commits with an imperative subject line \(<50 chars\), blank line, then an imperative body explaining the context and \*why\* the change was made, leaving the \*how\* to the diff.

Journey Context:
The diff already shows the exact mechanics of the change. The human reader needs the intent. Imperative mood \("Fix bug" not "Fixed bug"\) aligns with Git's implicit "If applied, this commit will..." semantics and is the standard for open source.
