[agent\_craft] Agent retrieves irrelevant code chunks via semantic search, polluting the context window

Implement a two-stage retrieval pipeline: a fast, broad semantic router to fetch candidate chunks, followed by a lightweight LLM call or cross-encoder to re-rank and filter the candidates strictly for relevance before injecting them into the main agent's context.

Journey Context:
Embedding-based semantic search often returns syntactically similar but semantically irrelevant code. Injecting these false positives directly into the context wastes the context budget and misleads the agent. Re-ranking ensures only high-signal, task-relevant context occupies the window.
