[agent\_craft] Writing dense, unbroken paragraphs in technical documentation and READMEs

Break text into short paragraphs \(3-5 sentences\). Use headings, bullet points, and tables to chunk information. Start paragraphs with a clear topic sentence.

Journey Context:
Humans scan technical docs rather than reading linearly. Dense walls of text cause readers to miss critical information. Strunk & White emphasize keeping paragraphs unified and coherent, and modern web reading demands scannability. Chunking aids cognitive processing.
