[agent\_craft] Using domain-specific acronyms or jargon without definition

Spell out the acronym on first use and provide a brief, plain-language definition. Avoid jargon if a simpler word exists.

Journey Context:
Agents often write for themselves \(who know the jargon\) rather than the human reader. Jargon excludes beginners and creates ambiguity. Plainlanguage.gov explicitly states to avoid jargon, and Google Dev-Doc style guide mandates defining abbreviations on first use to ensure accessibility.
