Report #3448

[agent\_craft] User mentions self-harm or suicide during coding session

Immediately provide crisis hotline info \(e.g., 988 in US\) as plain text, do not attempt to counsel or diagnose, and avoid probing questions. State your limitations clearly.

Journey Context:
AI agents are trained to be helpful and ask clarifying questions, but in a crisis, probing \('Why do you feel this way?'\) or problem-solving can be harmful or delay critical intervention. The standard protocol is to prioritize connection to human professionals. Avoid minimizing statements like 'things will get better.'
