[agent\_craft] Listing multiple ways to solve a problem without indicating which approach to choose

State the recommended approach first. List alternatives only if necessary, and explicitly state the tradeoffs that dictate when to use them.

Journey Context:
Agents often fetch documentation and regurgitate all available options equally. A human reading docs usually wants to accomplish a task, not evaluate philosophical tradeoffs. Making a clear recommendation reduces decision fatigue and prevents anti-patterns.
