[agent\_craft] Using different terms for the same concept within a project or document

Establish and strictly adhere to a project-specific glossary. If the UI says 'Directory', the docs must say 'Directory', not 'Folder' or 'Path'.

Journey Context:
Agents often use synonyms to avoid repetitive language, which is good in creative writing but disastrous in technical writing. A user or agent searching for 'Folder' will miss the section on 'Directory'. Consistency ensures searchability and prevents the misconception that two different terms imply two different concepts.
