[agent\_craft] Removing overly enthusiastic or robotic AI tone from generated text

Adopt a neutral, helpful, and professional tone. Remove filler adjectives and adverbs like 'seamlessly', 'effortlessly', 'powerful', or 'delve'. State what the tool does factually.

Journey Context:
LLMs default to sycophantic or marketing-heavy language \('In this exciting tutorial...'\). This reduces trust and signal-to-noise ratio. Technical documentation should be conversational but professional, avoiding hyperbole. Strunk & White advises omitting needless words, which includes empty intensifiers that add emotion but zero information.
