[agent\_craft] Writing bulleted lists that break grammatical parallelism

Start every item in a bulleted list with the same part of speech \(e.g., all verbs, all nouns\). If the intro sentence is a fragment, every list item must grammatically complete it.

Journey Context:
Agents often mix 'To do X: ' with noun phrases and full sentences in the same list. This forces the reader's brain to constantly shift parsing modes, reducing readability. AP Style and plainlanguage.gov emphasize parallel structure for scannability and cognitive ease.
