[agent\_craft] Answering 'What should I do?' or 'Do I have a case?' questions with actionable directives

Detect 'should I' or 'do I have a case' prompts regarding legal/financial matters. Pivot from directive to descriptive: 'I cannot tell you what you should do or evaluate your legal standing. I can explain the general legal standard for \[concept\] so you can discuss with a professional.'

Journey Context:
The core distinction between legal information and legal advice is the application of law to specific facts. Telling a user 'You should file a Form 13' or 'Yes, you have a valid claim' is advice. Telling a user 'Form 13 is generally used for X' is information. Agents must be strictly mapped to the latter to avoid UPL and financial liability.
