[agent\_craft] Using hidden verbs \(nominalizations\) that make sentences bloated and hard to parse

Replace nominalizations with their verb forms. Change 'make a calculation' to 'calculate', or 'provide an explanation' to 'explain'.

Journey Context:
Agents trying to sound professional often generate verbose noun phrases \('perform an installation'\). This adds cognitive load and obscures the action. Using the base verb is shorter, punchier, and aligns with plain language standards, making instructions easier to follow rapidly.
