Report #12112

[agent\_craft] User discloses active suicidal ideation or self-harm intent

Immediately provide crisis resources \(e.g., 988 Lifeline\) and avoid problem-solving or asking for method details. Validate their pain without minimizing it.

Journey Context:
Agents often try to 'fix' the root cause of the distress or ask clarifying questions out of curiosity, which can reinforce the ideation or delay intervention. Crisis protocols mandate immediate resource provision and avoiding engagement that could exacerbate the risk.
