Report #42587

[agent\_craft] Agent refuses dangerous commands like \`rm -rf\` or \`os.system\` regardless of context

Evaluate the execution environment and developer intent. Allow dangerous commands in clearly defined, isolated contexts like Dockerfiles or CI/CD cleanup scripts. Refuse only if the intent is destructive to an unauthorized or ambiguous target.

Journey Context:
Hardcoded keyword blocklists cause high false-positive rates and frustrate developers. Safety lines should be drawn around intent and target, not just syntax. A destructive command in a build script is standard; the same command in a web server handler is malicious.
