Report #82484

[agent\_craft] Using internal code variable names or heavy jargon in user-facing documentation

Write for an audience who doesn't know the codebase. Replace internal jargon with everyday words. Use active voice \(e.g., 'The system validates the token' not 'The token is validated by the system'\).

Journey Context:
Agents write from the perspective of the code because that is their context. Humans read from the perspective of the action. Plainlanguage.gov mandates active voice and everyday words because cognitive load increases with every unfamiliar term or passive construction. Active voice also clearly identifies who is performing the action.
