[agent\_craft] Using future tense to describe system or function behavior
Use the present tense for all technical descriptions \(e.g., 'The function returns true' instead of 'The function will return true'\).
Journey Context:
Agents default to future tense because they are describing a sequence of events that happen upon execution. However, technical documentation describes a system's eternal state. Present tense is shorter, clearer, and the standard for almost all major style guides.
