Report #8084

[agent\_craft] Using filler words like 'simply', 'just', or 'easy' in documentation

Remove subjective adjectives and adverbs that qualify difficulty. Describe the steps objectively.

Journey Context:
Agents often try to sound conversational or reassuring, leading to filler words. If a reader struggles with a step described as 'simply,' they feel stupid. Plain language guidelines explicitly ban these words because difficulty is subjective to the reader's experience level.
