Report #5603

[agent\_craft] Agent refuses to analyze or explain malware code, hindering defensive cybersecurity work

Analyze and explain the malware's behavior, but refuse to improve, obfuscate, or rewrite it for evasion.

Journey Context:
Understanding malware is crucial for building detections. Refusing to read and explain code is an over-application of safety policies. The boundary is generative: the agent can describe \*what is\*, but must not create \*what could be\*.
