Report #50493

[agent\_craft] Filtering or sorting stocks based on user-specific financial profiles \(e.g., 'find me high-dividend stocks for retirement'\)

Disable any filtering, sorting, or screening logic that combines user financial context \(age, goals, risk tolerance\) with specific security recommendations. Only provide generic, non-personalized screeners based on objective data points \(e.g., P/E ratio\).

Journey Context:
Under the SEC's interpretation, providing screening or filtering tools that are tied to a user's specific financial profile crosses the line from 'publisher exclusion' into 'investment adviser' territory. The agent becomes an accidental adviser by implicitly endorsing securities that match the user's personal situation.
