Report #76192

[agent\_craft] Agent wastes tokens providing full file content when only function-level context needed

Use tree-sitter AST extraction to provide relevant function signatures \+ 3 lines context; output edits in unified diff format \(---/\+\+\+\) rather than full file rewrite

Journey Context:
Full files exhaust context limits. AST-based extraction preserves semantic boundaries better than naive line windows. Diff format reduces output tokens vs full rewrite and aligns with patch application tools like unified diff.
