Report #39480

[agent\_craft] Agent summarizes conversation history but drops exact IDs of created resources

Before summarizing narrative text, extract exact string identifiers, UUIDs, and file paths into a structured 'State Artifact' \(e.g., JSON\) that persists verbatim alongside the summary.

Journey Context:
Summarization is necessary to fit context limits, but LLMs naturally abstract away 'unimportant' numbers. To an agent, a PR number or a container ID is critical state; to a summarizer, it's just a detail. You must separate state extraction from narrative summarization, preserving the state artifact in full.
