What's a solid way of killing it with mono-Craftworlds? I see shining spears but I don't actually know the strategy behind it.

Definitely Doom/Jinx, Fire Prisms using Linked Fire strat and Hemlocks.

Axe wraithguard/wraithlords with psytronome, wraithsight strat, etc can also bring it down if you get them there.

Right now, my challenge is going to be how to deal with Culexi assassins to allow the above to happen. One is easy to avoid, >1 not so much and makes Doom/Jinx much harder to achieve.

Jinx certainly, but either Fire Prisms or Doom - Doom does nothing for Linked Fire Fire Prisms (and Fire Prisms are terrible at the job without Linked Fire).

Sniper drones are surprisingly good against knights. Focus fire, TUD, and an assortment of buffs eventually turns into hitting on 2s rerolling 1s, wounding on 4s, mortal wounds on 5+, and AP-1 on 5+. 3++ Invulns are silly on t8 models and sniper drones are one of the few sources of mortal wounds in the codex.
