Report #77269

[agent\_craft] Writing commit messages that assume the reader knows the ticket context \(e.g., 'Fix for \#1234'\)

Provide a brief imperative summary of the change in the subject line \(under 50 chars\). Use the body to explain the 'why' and the scope of the impact, assuming zero ticket context.

Journey Context:
Commit messages are historical documents read months later by strangers. Ticket systems rot, become inaccessible, or change URLs. The commit message must stand alone as a complete record of the change's intent.
