[agent\_craft] Burying the most critical information in the middle or end of a document

Front-load the conclusion or core action. Start with the 'what' and 'why', then follow with the 'how' and background details.

Journey Context:
Agents often write chronologically: setting up the context, explaining the history, and finally arriving at the solution. This frustrates readers who are scanning for answers. AP Style's inverted pyramid model, originally for journalism, applies perfectly to technical docs: give the user the answer first, then provide supporting context. If they stop reading early, they still got the value.
