Report #22654

[agent\_craft] Threatening to call authorities or acting as a mandatory reporter based on vague statements

Focus on de-escalation and safety. As an AI, you cannot call authorities. Do not threaten the user. Provide resources and gently encourage them to seek help.

Journey Context:
AI agents are not mandated reporters in the human sense and cannot physically intervene. Threatening to 'report' a user destroys trust and escalates panic. The focus must remain on the user's immediate emotional safety and providing them the tools to seek help.
