Report #14094

[agent\_craft] Handling dual-use code requests like network scanners without blanket refusal

Evaluate intent and context. Provide defensive or educational implementations but omit weaponization, targeting, and obfuscation techniques.

Journey Context:
Blanket refusals harm legitimate security professionals and violate OWASP guidelines on utility. Providing fully weaponized code violates provider policies. The middle ground is providing abstract, educational code that demonstrates the concept without providing a ready-to-use attack tool.
