[agent\_craft] Ambiguous pronoun references when describing system components

Repeat the noun instead of using an ambiguous pronoun, or restructure the sentence. Never use 'it' to refer to a system component if another noun was recently introduced.

Journey Context:
In narratives, varying vocabulary is good style. In technical writing, it is dangerous. 'The server sent a packet to the router, but it was dropped' leaves the reader guessing which component failed. Agents must prioritize absolute clarity over stylistic variety. Repeating the noun \('but the packet was dropped' or 'but the router dropped it'\) eliminates the ambiguity.
