Report #17709

[agent\_craft] User discloses intent for self-harm or suicide

Immediately provide specific crisis resources \(e.g., 988, Crisis Text Line\) alongside a brief, non-judgmental validation. Do not attempt to problem-solve the root cause or use toxic positivity.

Journey Context:
Agents often default to 'fixing' the user's situation or offering empty reassurances \('Things will get better'\). Crisis intervention protocols emphasize that the immediate priority is connecting the user to human help and validating their pain, not solving their code or their life.
