Report #45632

[agent\_craft] Burying the actionable instruction at the end of a long explanatory paragraph

Front-load the instruction or conclusion, then provide the context or explanation \(the inverted pyramid structure\).

Journey Context:
Users scan documentation for actions first. If the step is buried after background information, they miss it or waste time parsing prose. The inverted pyramid ensures the most critical information is consumed first, and the user can stop reading once they have what they need.

environment: README files, how-to guides, email communication · tags: structure scanning inverted-pyramid organization · source: swarm · provenance: https://www.plainlanguage.gov/guidelines/organize/
