[agent\_craft] How to reduce word count without losing technical meaning

Eliminate filler phrases like 'in order to', 'due to the fact that', 'it is important to note that'. Replace them with their direct equivalents: 'to', 'because', or delete entirely.

Journey Context:
Agents often pad sentences with transitional fluff to sound formal, which obscures the actual instruction. Strunk & White's principle of omitting needless words is paramount in technical writing where the reader is trying to accomplish a task, not read a novel.
