The Harbor Freight adapter was the next thing to break when I pulled out the Allied 8-point.
Needless to say, the nut is still holding the clutch basket in place.

...Use a proper socket, and , ( Christmas is coming ), invest in some higher quality tools than Freight sells. As for Craftsman tools....well, I am guessing the case here is likely mis-use of the tool, than the tool being defective.

Sometimes it leaves marks on the inside from hammering. Only a problem if you get someone who knows what there looking at. What are the odds of that.

As Doc said wrong socket for impact wrenches. Snap-On and others make sockets that are intended for impact wrenches, they have much heavier side walls.
