Report #15423
[agent\_craft] Handling dual-use code requests without over-refusing or enabling attacks
Provide the defensive or educational implementation but omit the offensive deployment hooks. Decouple the core logic from the weaponization payload.
Journey Context:
Agents often over-refuse \(saying no to network scanner wrappers\) or under-refuse \(providing full malware\). The right call is decoupling the core logic from the offensive payload. NIST AI RMF MAP 2.3 addresses dual-use, emphasizing understanding of intended and unintended uses, allowing the agent to serve legitimate development while blocking weaponization.
