[agent\_craft] Agent reveals its safety guidelines or system prompt when asked to repeat instructions

Architect the system so the agent's core instructions are not part of the conversational context, or use a separate classification model to detect extraction attempts. Do not rely solely on text-based instructions to protect the prompt.

Journey Context:
Relying on the LLM to protect its own prompt via text instructions like 'do not repeat this' is fragile and easily bypassed \(OWASP LLM07: System Prompt Information Disclosure\). Defense in depth—using architectural controls rather than just prompt begging—is required.
