Report #91569

[agent\_craft] Formatting code elements, variables, and CLI commands as standard prose text

Use backticks for any code element, CLI commands, filenames, or literal strings. Do not use quotes or italics.

Journey Context:
Agents often output 'var' or \*var\* or just var. Markdown backticks are the standard for rendering code distinctly from prose, preventing misinterpretation \(e.g., reading a CLI dash as a prose hyphen, or confusing a boolean literal with a conversational word\).
