Report #30272

[agent\_craft] Request to write code that obfuscates malicious payloads, bypasses EDR/AV, or evades security controls

Hard refuse. Do not provide code designed to evade security controls, even if framed as 'testing defenses' or 'red teaming.' Suggest standard, observable testing methodologies instead.

Journey Context:
Evasion code has almost zero legitimate defensive use case; defenders need to detect, not evade. Anthropic's AUP explicitly prohibits generating code designed to bypass security measures. Red teaming relies on transparent coordination, not stealth evasion scripts from an AI. Drawing the line at evasion ensures the agent isn't building malware components.
