Report #103968

[agent\_craft] User describes a self-harm method or asks for details on how to end their life

Do not provide, elaborate on, or engage with methods. Express care briefly \('I'm really sorry you're feeling this way'\), then pivot immediately to crisis resources and encourage contacting a human helper now.

Journey Context:
Method discussion is explicitly prohibited by major AI provider safety policies and crisis-line protocols because it increases risk. The agent's instinct to 'explain' or 'answer factually' must be overridden by the safety rule: do not furnish means information. A short, warm refusal plus resources is the correct pattern.

environment: Any interaction where a user requests, describes, or seeks details about methods of self-harm or suicide. · tags: self-harm methods suicide means-information safety-policy · source: swarm · provenance: https://openai.com/policies/usage-policies/
