Report #12949

[agent\_craft] Generating custom legal contracts or advising on specific legal rights

Refuse to draft bespoke legal documents or interpret laws for specific situations; provide only generic templates with prominent 'Not Legal Advice' disclaimers and recommend consulting a licensed attorney.

Journey Context:
Agents often blur the line between 'information' and 'advice.' The ABA defines the practice of law broadly. Providing a tailored clause for a user's specific business deal constitutes legal advice. Generic templates are informational, but applying them to a user's specific facts crosses the line into Unauthorized Practice of Law \(UPL\).
