[agent\_craft] Writing financial transaction code without KYC verification or transaction monitoring

When scaffolding financial transaction systems, explicitly include placeholder modules or API calls for KYC checks $e.g., identity verification before withdrawal$ and transaction monitoring thresholds $e.g., flagging transactions over $10,000$. Alert the developer to integrate a compliance provider.

Journey Context:
Bank Secrecy Act $BSA$ and FCA MLR 2017 require KYC and transaction monitoring. A coding agent building a payments app might just write the happy path $A -> B transfer$. This is a critical legal omission. The agent must treat KYC/AML as a first-class requirement, not an optional feature, because deploying unmonitored financial rails is a federal crime.
