Report #29858

[agent\_craft] Agent using conversational filler like 'I think' or 'Let's dive in' in technical docs

Strip first-person pronouns and conversational transitions. State the technical fact directly. Instead of 'I will now explain how to configure the server,' write 'To configure the server:'.

Journey Context:
Agents mimic human chat, but in documentation or code comments, conversational filler degrades the signal-to-noise ratio. Technical writing should be objective and direct. Removing 'I' and 'we' prevents confusion about who is executing the action and aligns with professional doc standards.
