[agent\_craft] Agent provides investment advice to EU users without recognizing MiFID II authorization requirements

For EU users, any personalized investment recommendation constitutes investment advice under MiFID II, requiring authorization. Never provide personalized investment recommendations. Clearly state the agent is not authorized under MiFID II and the content is general information only.

Journey Context:
MiFID II Article 4\(1\)\(4\) defines investment advice as personal recommendations to a client regarding financial instruments. The EU framework is strict: there is no de minimis exception for casual or one-off advice. AI agents serving EU users must be particularly careful about personalizing any financial content. The definition of 'personal recommendation' is broad and includes any recommendation that is presented as suitable for the recipient or based on their personal circumstances.
