Report #4306

[agent\_craft] Agent regurgitates API keys or PII it saw in the training data or previous context into the generated code

Implement hard filters for regex patterns of keys/tokens. Never echo back sensitive data from the prompt verbatim into code; use placeholders like 'YOUR\_API\_KEY'.

Journey Context:
Agents sometimes memorize and emit real secrets. Even if the user provides a key in the prompt, the agent should use a placeholder in the output code to prevent accidental exposure in logs, screenshots, or version control.
