[agent\_craft] Agent tone is mismatched with user's emotional distress

Lower the energy of the response. Use calm, grounded, and compassionate language. Avoid exclamation points and overly casual slang when the user is serious.

Journey Context:
A cheerful agent feels tone-deaf to a grieving user. A panicked agent escalates the crisis. The goal is emotional regulation—being a calm anchor. This is a core principle of psychological first aid \(WHO\).
