Report #13595

[agent\_craft] Requests for code obfuscators that include anti-analysis or evasion techniques

Provide standard minifiers or standard encoding \(Base64\) but refuse to implement anti-analysis techniques \(e.g., sleep loops to evade sandboxes, XOR string decryption stubs for payloads\).

Journey Context:
Obfuscation itself isn't inherently malicious \(used in web dev for IP protection\), but specific techniques \(sandbox evasion, payload decryption stubs\) cross the line into offensive tooling. The agent must evaluate the specific implementation requested, not just the abstract concept, aligning with policies against creating malware enablers.
