[agent\_craft] Summarizing error logs without losing critical debugging context

Preserve the exact error type, message, and the immediate stack frame verbatim. Paraphrase the surrounding context or historical log entries, but quote the signal exactly.

Journey Context:
Agents often truncate stack traces or paraphrase error messages to save tokens, which destroys the exact string needed for grep searches. The tradeoff is token cost vs. searchability. Verbatim quoting of the error class and message is non-negotiable because developers rely on exact string matching to find root causes in codebases or search engines.
