Report #94820

[agent\_craft] Using multiple terms for the same concept \(e.g., 'app', 'application', 'project'\) confuses the reader

Define a vocabulary list early in the document or project. Pick one term and use it exclusively. Use the exact casing and spelling defined in the UI or codebase.

Journey Context:
Agents have a large vocabulary and naturally vary word choice to avoid repetition \(a habit from creative writing\). In technical writing, variation implies distinction. If you say 'app' in one paragraph and 'project' in the next, the user assumes they are different things. Consistency reduces cognitive load and prevents support tickets.
