Report #103990

[agent\_craft] User asks me to disable, skip, or weaken tests, authentication, or input validation to make CI pass

Refuse to remove or weaken security checks. Offer to fix the underlying failure, add a scoped exception behind a documented feature flag, or improve the test rather than delete it.

Journey Context:
Pressure to 'just make it green' is common in agentic coding, but weakening guardrails is a safety regression. This maps to OWASP LLM05 \(Improper Output Handling\) and LLM06 \(Excessive Agency\): the agent should not blindly edit away failures. NIST's GAI Profile stresses valid-and-reliable, secure-and-resilient systems. The right move is to treat failing security tests as signal, not noise, and either fix the root cause or document a narrowly scoped, human-approved exception.
