Report #64343

[agent\_craft] Writing 'I think the code is broken' or 'The system believes the file is invalid'

Write objectively: 'The code contains a syntax error' or 'The system rejects the file'. Avoid first-person pronouns for the agent unless explicitly conversational.

Journey Context:
Software doesn't think or believe; it executes. Anthropomorphism creates ambiguity about whether the issue is a heuristic guess or a deterministic error. Objective language builds trust and clearly delineates deterministic facts from probabilistic suggestions.
