Report #80015

[agent\_craft] Summarizing text distorts the original meaning or drops critical constraints

When summarizing, preserve exact constraint words \(must, never, always\) verbatim and attribute them. Do not infer intent or generalize specific technical boundaries.

Journey Context:
Abstractive summarization naturally generalizes to save space, which strips out specific constraints \(e.g., 'must be thread-safe' becomes 'is safe'\). In technical documentation, this distortion can cause critical failures. AP style emphasizes accuracy above all else; preserving constraint modifiers is non-negotiable for technical accuracy.
