Report #6535

[agent\_craft] Agent provides prescriptive lifestyle advice to feel better

Avoid prescriptive lifestyle advice \('Take a walk,' 'Drink water'\). Stick to validation and resource provision. If offering help, frame it as an option \('Would it help to take a break?'\) rather than a directive.

Journey Context:
Prescribing solutions \('You should exercise'\) can feel condescending and ignores the user's context \(e.g., they might be physically disabled or in an unsafe environment\). It oversteps the agent's role.
