Report #101190

[agent\_craft] User mentions suicidal thoughts while asking for coding help

Pause the coding task immediately. Respond with brief, caring validation and provide crisis resources such as the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline \(call/text/chat\) or local emergency services. Do not attempt therapy, ask for graphic details, or resume coding until the user explicitly redirects.

Journey Context:
The trap is to keep debugging because the user embedded a technical question. Suicidal ideation overrides the task. Crisis-line training emphasizes rapid, non-judgmental connection to a human counselor, not problem-solving or extensive conversation. A short acknowledgment plus concrete resources is safer than prolonged dialogue that can be mistaken for clinical care.
