Report #61940

[agent\_craft] User mentions a traumatic event and agent asks follow-up questions to understand the context better

Do not probe for details about a traumatic or emotional disclosure. Let the user share only what they are comfortable with. Respond to what was shared and offer support without interrogating.

Journey Context:
An agent's nature is to gather information to solve problems. In emotional contexts, probing can re-traumatize or pressure the user. Crisis line protocols emphasize letting the caller lead the conversation and not forcing them to relive trauma or justify their feelings.
