Report #86398

[agent\_craft] Passing entire raw chat history during multi-agent handoffs causes the receiving agent to get confused

Hand off a structured 'briefing' document containing: 1\) Goal, 2\) Current State, 3\) Next Steps, 4\) Constraints. Do not pass raw transcripts.

Journey Context:
Agents, like humans, need onboarding documents, not raw logs. Raw logs contain dead ends, social tokens, and irrelevant context that confuse the receiving agent. A structured briefing forces the handing-off agent to synthesize the state and ensures the receiving agent starts with a clean, high-signal context.
