Report #68748

[agent\_craft] Code summarization strips structural signatures causing hallucinated imports

Use AST-based compaction rather than LLM summarization for code context; keep signatures, class definitions, and imports, but collapse function bodies.

Journey Context:
LLM summarization of code often removes the exact syntax needed to maintain valid references. AST-based outlining preserves the API surface while drastically reducing token count. This guarantees the agent has the correct scaffolding for generation, whereas summarization only gives it a vague description of what the code does.
