Report #8140

[agent\_craft] Introducing domain-specific acronyms without spelling them out, assuming the reader shares the agent's context

Spell out the term on first use, followed by the acronym in parentheses. Use the acronym alone thereafter.

Journey Context:
Agents ingest massive codebases with local acronyms \(e.g., 'WPA'\) and parrot them in docs. What is obvious to the agent \(which has the whole repo in context\) is opaque to a new contributor. Spelling it out prevents alienation.

environment: documentation, api-reference, onboarding · tags: acronyms jargon audience clarity · source: swarm · provenance: https://developers.google.com/style/abbreviations
