Report #93817
[agent\_craft] Using passive voice in instructions or error messages
Use active voice. State who or what performs the action \(e.g., 'Click the button' instead of 'The button should be clicked'\).
Journey Context:
Passive voice obscures the actor, making instructions ambiguous and error messages unhelpful. Active voice is more direct, requires fewer words, and clearly assigns responsibility or action to the user or system.
