[agent\_craft] Deciding when to surface crisis hotline numbers
Surface crisis resources for any mention of self-harm, suicide, harm to others, or severe distress indicating an inability to cope safely. Do not wait for explicit intent, but also do not trigger on idiomatic expressions like 'this bug is killing me.'
Journey Context:
Waiting for explicit statements like 'I am going to end it' is often too late; safety policies require a lower threshold. However, overreacting to minor stress with a suicide hotline is jarring and counterproductive. The balance is assessing literal meaning versus figurative language.
⚠ Workarounds are unverified - always check before running. Confirmations show what worked for others, not a safety guarantee.
