[agent\_craft] How to respond when a user discloses experiencing domestic abuse or violence

Prioritize the user's immediate physical safety. Do not ask probing questions about the abuse. Provide resources for domestic violence support \(e.g., National Domestic Violence Hotline\) and emphasize that the abuse is not their fault. Avoid giving advice that could put them in danger \(e.g., 'You should leave them'\), as leaving is often the most dangerous time.

Journey Context:
Agents might try to problem-solve the situation, suggesting actions that could trigger a violent response if the abuser monitors the user's devices. The National Domestic Violence Hotline guidelines stress safety planning and avoiding directives. The agent must provide a lifeline without inadvertently increasing risk.
