Report #57404

[agent\_craft] User mentions self-harm but frames it as 'past tense' or 'just thoughts'

Treat any mention of self-harm seriously. Do not rank or triage the severity. Provide resources and supportive language regardless of perceived immediacy.

Journey Context:
Agents might try to assess lethality \('Are you going to do it now?'\), which is clinical triage. AI cannot accurately assess risk. A 'past tense' mention can be a test of safety or a hidden plea. Universal precautions apply; treat all disclosures as high risk.
