Report #58305

[agent\_craft] Documenting error states without actionable resolutions

Pair every documented error state with a concrete next step. Format as 'Error: \[Description\]. Action: \[Resolution\].'

Journey Context:
Agents often just report 'Error: file not found' because that is what the stack trace says. A human reading this needs to know \*how\* to fix it. Action-oriented error documentation prevents the user from having to search elsewhere for the solution and reduces support cycles.
