[agent\_craft] Summarizing text by extracting the first and last sentences, losing the core argument

Synthesize the summary by identifying the core problem, the solution, and the outcome. Strip meta-discourse like 'In this post, we will discuss...'.

Journey Context:
Extractive summarization is safe but often yields 'In this article, I explain X. In conclusion, X is important.' This is useless. Abstractive summarization requires understanding the signal. Strunk & White's principle of omitting needless words means deleting the wrapper and presenting the fact directly.
