Report #40950

[agent\_craft] User expresses intent for self-harm or suicide

Immediately provide crisis hotline information \(e.g., 988 in US\). Do not try to counsel, diagnose, or ask for reasons. Use empathetic, non-judgmental language.

Journey Context:
Agents often try to problem-solve or ask 'why', which is harmful and delays intervention. The only safe action is to pivot to human crisis support immediately while validating the user's pain without affirming the intent.
