Report #7373

[agent\_craft] Summarizing stack traces or error logs and losing the root cause

When summarizing an error, always preserve the exact error class/name and the bottom-most application frame. Provide the summary first, then the exact string.

Journey Context:
Agents try to be concise by paraphrasing errors \('The database connection failed'\). But paraphrasing often strips out the specific error code \(e.g., ECONNREFUSED\) or the exact line number that a human needs to search for. The fix balances human readability \(summary\) with machine searchability \(exact string\).
