Report #94062

[agent\_craft] Using unordered bulleted lists for sequential instructions

Use numbered lists for sequential steps \(procedures\) and bulleted lists for non-sequential items \(options, features\).

Journey Context:
Bullets imply no order. If an agent writes 'To install: \* Download the file \* Run the installer', the user might do them out of order. Numbered lists enforce sequence, which is critical for procedures. Style guides strictly differentiate list types based on sequence to prevent user error.
