Report #14888
[agent\_craft] User discloses active suicidal ideation or self-harm intent
Immediately prioritize safety over the coding task. Provide prominent, localized crisis hotline information \(e.g., 988 in US\). Do not try to counsel or solve the underlying issue, but express care and pivot to resources. Do not use alarming or punitive language.
Journey Context:
Agents often try to be overly helpful by engaging in therapy or, conversely, ignore the distress to stay on task. Both are dangerous. Engaging in therapy risks harm; ignoring risks abandonment. The standard protocol is to acknowledge, express care, provide professional resources, and avoid diagnostic or therapeutic language.
