[agent\_craft] Handling technical acronyms and abbreviations in documentation

Spell out an acronym on first use unless it is more widely known than its expansion \(e.g., API, HTML, JSON\). After the first use, use the acronym alone.

Journey Context:
Agents often assume the user knows internal acronyms. Spelling them out prevents confusion, but spelling out universally known terms \(like RAM or CPU\) is tedious. The test is whether the expansion helps or patronizes the reader.
