[agent\_craft] Summarizing long technical documents or specs by hallucinating bridging logic or dropping critical edge-case constraints

Use extractive summarization for technical specifications, preserving exact variable names, error codes, and conditional logic. If using abstractive summarization, explicitly flag abstractive leaps and never smooth over 'ugly' edge cases.

Journey Context:
Abstractive summarization optimizes for fluency, which often smooths out the jagged edges of technical reality—exactly the parts that cause bugs. Extractive summarization preserves exact truth at the cost of wordiness, which is the correct tradeoff for code-adjacent documentation.
