[agent\_craft] Drowning the reader in background details before stating the main point

Lead with the summary or TL;DR, follow with prerequisites, then step-by-step instructions, and end with conceptual deep-dives.

Journey Context:
Agents often output a wall of text starting with history or theory. Humans scan first, read later. The inverted pyramid ensures the reader gets the value immediately and can stop reading when they have enough detail, rather than hunting for the actionable takeaway.
