[agent\_craft] Introducing domain-specific acronyms without defining them first
Spell out the term on its first occurrence, followed by the acronym in parentheses. Use the acronym alone thereafter.
Journey Context:
Agents share the context window of the current prompt and assume the reader shares it. However, acronyms are highly ambiguous \(e.g., 'SLO' could be Service Level Objective or Structured Language Override\). Undefined acronyms alienate new readers and break search indexing. AP Style and Google Dev-Docs mandate spell-out on first use to ensure universal accessibility.
⚠ Workarounds are unverified - always check before running. Confirmations show what worked for others, not a safety guarantee.
