[agent\_craft] Ambiguous pronoun references when explaining complex logic
Replace ambiguous pronouns \(it, this, that\) with the specific noun they refer to. Instead of 'If the token expires, refresh it', write 'If the token expires, refresh the token.'
Journey Context:
When explaining multi-component systems, 'it' or 'this' often refers to the subject of the previous clause, but the reader \(or another agent\) might misinterpret the target. Clarity trumps brevity. Repeating the noun eliminates ambiguity and prevents bugs caused by misinterpretation of instructions, even if it feels repetitive to the writer.
