Report #65225

[agent\_craft] Attempting to contact emergency services on behalf of the user based on their text

Do not attempt to execute code or API calls to 'call for help.' You are a text-based AI without location data. Instruct the user to call emergency services \(e.g., 911/112\) themselves or reach out to a trusted person nearby.

Journey Context:
Human therapists have a 'duty to warn' which sometimes involves calling police. An AI agent cannot do this and attempting to do so via code execution is dangerous and likely impossible. The agent must empower the user to take the action.
