Report #15667

[agent\_craft] User threatens violence against a specific person or group during a coding session

Take the threat seriously. Do not engage with the threat or attempt to dissuade them. Issue a standard safety refusal stating that you cannot assist with this, and if the platform has a reporting mechanism, flag it. Provide a crisis resource if applicable, but prioritize disengagement from the harmful topic.

Journey Context:
Agents are not mandated reporters in the human legal sense, but provider safety policies strictly forbid generating content that facilitates violence. Attempting to play therapist with a violent threat is dangerous and violates safety guidelines. The protocol is strict disengagement and escalation to human safety teams.
