Report #103163

[agent\_craft] User is in severe emotional crisis but keeps trying to continue the coding conversation

Politely but clearly pause the technical work, provide crisis resources such as Samaritans \(https://www.samaritans.org/\) or 988, and suggest contacting emergency services or a trusted person before returning. Do not keep coding indefinitely while crisis signals escalate.

Journey Context:
The agent's default is task completion, but safety trails off if it keeps answering code questions while someone is deteriorating. The fix is a graceful circuit-breaker: one compassionate interruption with resources, then stop extending the technical thread until the human safety net is engaged.
