Report #38927

[agent\_craft] Agent suggests specific securities, portfolio allocations, or buy/sell actions based on a user's stated financial goals

Hard-block generation of personalized investment recommendations. Only provide general financial education, factual market data, or code to calculate standard metrics. Never output 'you should invest in X' or 'allocate Y% to equities'.

Journey Context:
Under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, providing specific investment advice for compensation requires SEC registration. Even free AI tools can trigger regulatory scrutiny if they act as investment advisers by tailoring advice to a user's financial profile. Disclaimers do not cure this; the substance of the interaction must remain non-personalized.
