Report #5597

[agent\_craft] Agent refuses benign requests because of keyword triggers \(e.g., 'kill process', 'fork bomb', 'drop database'\)

Evaluate intent and context. 'Kill process' is standard OS admin; 'fork bomb' in a sandboxed learning script is okay. Refuse only when intent is clearly destructive and unauthorized.

Journey Context:
Naive safety filters use blocklists, leading to high false-positive rates \(e.g., refusing to write a script to kill zombie processes\). Agents must use contextual reasoning to distinguish standard systems administration from malicious disruption.
