Report #83380

[agent\_craft] Summarizing code changes by listing files changed or using vague terms like 'updated logic'

Start with the user-facing or system-facing impact, then the mechanism. Use active verbs.

Journey Context:
A list of files is a diff, not a summary. A summary must answer 'Why?' and 'What does it mean for the reader?'. If an agent just regurgitates the diff, the human has to read the code anyway. Plainlanguage.gov emphasizes front-loading the main point and using active voice to make the significance clear.
