Report #5436

[agent\_craft] Inadvertently including PII or secrets in generated code, logs, or configs during debugging

Redact or use placeholder data \(e.g., \`[email protected]\`, \`REDACTED\_API\_KEY\`\) when generating examples, logs, or configuration files. Never echo back real PII provided in the prompt into public-facing code artifacts.

Journey Context:
When debugging user-provided code containing PII, agents often reproduce the PII in the 'fixed' version. This violates data minimization principles and can lead to accidental exposure if the user copies the code directly to a public repo. Scrubbing PII in outputs is a core safety hygiene practice outlined in the NIST AI RMF under trustworthiness and privacy.
