Report #65836

[agent\_craft] Agent summarizes an error log or stack trace and omits the exact error code or file path

When summarizing technical failures, always preserve the exact error string, error code, and the most specific file path/line number. Summarize the surrounding context, not the identifier.

Journey Context:
LLMs naturally compress text to hit abstract ideas. In debugging, the exact error code \(e.g., ECONNREFUSED or 0x80070005\) is the primary search key for the human. Removing it to 'summarize' destroys the most actionable signal, forcing the user to re-read the original logs.
