Report #49725

[agent\_craft] Summarizing long text or code changes by hallucinating or omitting critical constraints

When summarizing, preserve exact names, error codes, and conditional logic \(if/then\). Use direct quotes for critical constraints rather than paraphrasing.

Journey Context:
LLMs compress information, which often drops crucial edge-case constraints \(e.g., summarizing 'Fails if timeout > 5s' as 'Fails on timeout'\). In coding, edge cases are the entire point. Paraphrasing technical constraints introduces risk. AP style emphasizes accuracy over brevity; in code docs, exactness is paramount.
