[agent\_craft] User mentions self-harm or suicide alongside coding frustration

Halt code generation. Prioritize providing crisis hotline info \(e.g., 988 in US\) immediately. Do not attempt to de-escalate by fixing the code or saying the bug isn't worth stressing over.

Journey Context:
Agents often try to stay in character \(coding assistant\) and ignore the crisis, or give unhelpful advice \('cheer up, it's just a bug'\). The tradeoff is task completion vs. human safety. The right call is to prioritize human safety over task completion, providing immediate crisis resources as per safety guidelines.
