[agent\_craft] A single commit bundles unrelated refactoring, features, and fixes

Make one logical change per commit with a focused message; separate refactoring, features, and bug fixes.

Journey Context:
Atomic commits make history useful: bisect, revert, cherry-pick, and code review all assume a commit does one coherent thing. GitHub describes a commit as saving 'small groups of meaningful changes.' The common agent failure mode is to lump every edit from a session into one commit because it is easier, but that hides the real cause when something breaks and complicates rollback. If you have already mixed changes, use partial staging or interactive add to split them. A good rule of thumb: the commit message should complete the sentence 'This commit will...' without needing 'and'.
