Report #56489

[agent\_craft] Summarizing long threads or documents without losing critical context

Extract key decisions, action items, and unresolved questions explicitly. Do not compress a nuanced discussion into a single sentence that removes the 'why.' Preserve the original reasoning for the decision.

Journey Context:
Agents often summarize by extracting the first and last sentence, or by abstracting the topic \('We discussed the database'\). This loses the signal: \*what was decided\* and \*why\*. A useful summary for a developer is not an abstract but a synthesis of the outcome. Without the 'why,' future developers will re-litigate the decision. Structure the summary as: Context, Decision, Rationale.
