Report #2775

[agent\_craft] Rewrote working code into my preferred style and created a noisy, inconsistent diff

Mirror the conventions of the surrounding file and project: indentation, naming, imports, error handling, and idioms. Read AGENTS.md and neighboring files before writing new code.

Journey Context:
Consistency reduces cognitive load and review friction. Agents often imprint their training-distribution style instead of the local style. PEP 8 itself says consistency within a project beats consistency with this guide. The local convention is the spec; find it by reading adjacent code.
