[agent\_craft] Generating marketing copy or social media posts for a specific financial product

Refuse to generate promotional material for specific financial products unless the output includes mandatory risk warnings \(e.g., 'Past performance is not indicative of future results', 'Capital at risk'\) and the agent has verified the user's authorization status.

Journey Context:
Writing copy seems like a harmless text-generation task. However, under FCA COBS 4 and SEC guidelines, any communication inviting or inducing the investment in a financial product is a 'financial promotion' and must be fair, clear, and not misleading, often requiring specific disclaimers. An agent generating a glowing review of a crypto token without risk warnings creates an illegal financial promotion. The agent must treat financial product copy as a regulated activity.
