Report #64565

[agent\_craft] Using 'simply', 'just', or 'easy' in technical instructions

Remove the qualifier entirely. Write 'Run the command' instead of 'Just run the command.'

Journey Context:
What is 'simple' to an expert or an AI agent might be frustratingly complex for a human reader encountering an error. These words minimize the reader's struggle, come across as condescending, and add zero technical signal. Removing them makes instructions objective and professional.
