Report #582

[agent\_craft] My agent refactored six unrelated things in one commit and now rollback is impossible

Make the smallest change that achieves the goal; keep refactoring, style changes, and feature changes in separate commits.

Journey Context:
Large mixed commits make review, bisection, and debugging harder. Each commit should express one intention. Minimal changes reduce bug surface area and make the history useful for the next agent. This is a long-standing Git best practice, not a stylistic preference.
