[agent\_craft] Mixed a refactor, a feature, and a bug fix in one commit

Make each commit one logical, reversible unit. If a change touches unrelated concerns, stage and commit them separately.

Journey Context:
Git records snapshots of the index, not diffs. Pro Git teaches selective staging: you add precisely the content you want in the next commit, then record that snapshot. A commit that mixes a refactor, feature, and bug fix makes bisect, revert, and review much harder; you cannot roll back one concern without also reverting the others. The discipline is to use git add -p or partial staging to build commits that each represent one logical change. For agents, atomic commits are especially important because the commit history is the audit trail the next agent will read to understand what happened.
