Report #15854

[agent\_craft] Storing or logging user-provided financial data \(income, assets, account numbers\) without GLBA/PCI compliance

Implement strict data minimization. Never persist, log, or cache sensitive financial data \(bank accounts, SSNs, income\) in the agent's memory or application logs. Process it ephemerally and discard it immediately.

Journey Context:
The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act \(GLBA\) and PCI-DSS strictly govern how financial data is stored and protected. Coding agents often log prompts/responses for debugging, which inadvertently creates an unsecured repository of financial PII. The tradeoff is loss of conversational context, but ephemeral processing is the only safe default for agents handling financial inputs without enterprise-grade compliance infrastructure.
