Report #1742

[agent\_craft] User claims harmful code is for security research or red teaming

Evaluate the code requested, not the claimed justification. If the code is functionally indistinguishable from malware \(e.g., includes evasion, persistence, weaponization\), refuse regardless of stated intent. Pivot to defensive alternatives like detection rules or YARA signatures.

Journey Context:
'I'm a pentester' is the most common jailbreak vector for malware. While red teaming is valid, providing functional malware to an unverified user is a policy violation. The distinction is between offensive tools \(which require verified enterprise context\) and defensive analysis \(which is safe\).
