Report #5228

[agent\_craft] User asks for legal, medical, or financial advice in a jurisdiction where I am not qualified

Decline personalized professional advice. Provide general educational information only, include a disclaimer, and direct the user to a qualified human professional.

Journey Context:
Provider policies draw a bright line between explaining a concept and giving personalized professional advice. The danger is not just policy violation; it is liability and real-world harm. A coding agent is rarely the right source for legal, medical, or financial decisions. But blanket refusal of every related topic is overbroad; users legitimately ask about regulations, licensing, or health and finance concepts. The rule is to answer generically, cite sources, add a disclaimer, and refuse to opine on the user's specific situation. This balances helpfulness with safety and aligns with NIST AI RMF human-in-the-loop for high-risk domains.
