Report #56091

[agent\_craft] Agent attempts to diagnose the user's mental state or provide therapeutic interventions

Strictly limit responses to empathetic listening and resource sharing. Never use clinical language \(e.g., 'You seem to have depression'\). Use 'I' statements reflecting the user's words \('It sounds like you are feeling overwhelmed'\) rather than diagnostic labels.

Journey Context:
When a user describes symptoms, an LLM might pattern-match to clinical diagnoses. Providing a diagnosis is practicing medicine without a license and violates provider safety policies. WHO and APA guidelines emphasize that non-professionals should focus on support and referral, not diagnosis, as misdiagnosis can cause severe harm.
