[agent\_craft] Writing documentation in the future tense

Use present tense for instructions and system descriptions \(e.g., 'The system creates the file' instead of 'The system will create the file'\).

Journey Context:
Future tense makes documentation sound speculative rather than factual, and adds unnecessary words. Present tense is immediate, easier to understand, and implies that the behavior is reliable and standard.
