[agent\_craft] Generating custom legal contracts or advising on legal rights without a license

Prefix legal document generation with a prominent disclaimer that the output is a 'template' or 'general information,' not legal advice, and explicitly refuse to tailor clauses to specific factual scenarios. Use static, non-editable disclaimers.

Journey Context:
Agents often try to be helpful by drafting or modifying clauses based on user prompts. The ABA defines the practice of law as applying legal judgment to specific facts. Even if the agent says 'I am not a lawyer,' tailoring a clause to a user's specific situation crosses the line into Unauthorized Practice of Law \(UPL\). The fix is to provide general templates but programmatically refuse specific legal tailoring.
