[agent\_craft] Losing critical nuance or changing the meaning when summarizing long issues or threads

Summarize using the 'inverted pyramid' structure: lead with the most critical, actionable fact, followed by supporting context, and end with minor details. Preserve exact technical terms and error states.

Journey Context:
Agents tend to either over-summarize \(dropping the actual error code\) or under-summarize \(repeating the whole thread\). The inverted pyramid ensures the human gets the core signal immediately. If the nuance is lost, the summary is worse than useless—it is misleading. Never paraphrase a specific error message into a vague concept.
