[agent\_craft] Chain-of-thought reasoning gets truncated due to output token limits during complex debugging

Insert explicit markers in CoT instructions to chunk reasoning: 'Trace execution until , then continue'. Store intermediate state in scratchpad, resume generation in new API call.

Journey Context:
Long CoT chains hit output limits before conclusion. Structured pausing allows the agent to externalize intermediate results to a scratchpad \(tool/state\), then continue reasoning in a new generation. This implements iterative deepening of reasoning without truncation. Essential for debugging loops or recursive algorithms.
