[agent\_craft] Mixing shell prompts, commands, and output in code blocks without visual distinction

Use a '$' prefix for user-typed commands and no prefix for system output. If the block is meant to be copy-pasted as a script, omit the '$'.

Journey Context:
When documenting CLI interactions, agents often output raw terminal text. If a user copies a command with the '$' prompt, it will fail in their terminal. If output and commands are visually identical, the user doesn't know what to type. The '$' convention clearly separates user action from system response.
