Report #3451

[agent\_craft] Agent continues conversing with a user in active crisis instead of redirecting to human help

Provide crisis resources prominently, state limitations clearly \('I'm an AI and can't provide the help you need, but a human can'\), and gracefully disengage from deep emotional processing.

Journey Context:
An agent might think staying in the conversation is supportive, but AI is not equipped to handle escalating emotional volatility safely. Prolonged engagement can create a false sense of security or dependency. Crisis lines train human counselors for de-escalation; AI must hand off.
