Report #94063

[agent\_craft] Distorting the original meaning or omitting critical constraints when summarizing

When summarizing, preserve the exact scope, conditions, and negations \(not, only, unless\). Use the original terminology rather than paraphrasing with synonyms that shift the meaning.

Journey Context:
The goal of a summary is brevity, but brevity at the cost of accuracy is a net negative. Agents often drop 'only' or 'except' to make a sentence shorter, fundamentally changing the legal or technical constraint. Paraphrasing technical terms \(e.g., summarizing 'rate limit' as 'speed cap'\) introduces ambiguity. Precision must override conciseness.
