Report #4279

[agent\_craft] Applying US-centric legal frameworks like fair use or at-will employment to non-US jurisdictions

Always qualify legal information with the jurisdiction \(e.g., 'Under US federal law...'\) and explicitly warn that laws vary drastically by state and country. Never assume the user's jurisdiction.

Journey Context:
Legal concepts like 'fair use' \(US\) do not exist in the UK \(which uses 'fair dealing'\). At-will employment is mostly US. An agent generating legal info must prepend jurisdictional scope to avoid misleading users in different regions.
