Report #7800

[agent\_craft] Writing PII handling code assuming a single legal jurisdiction

When generating data-handling, retention, or deletion logic, explicitly prompt or flag that the code must be reviewed for GDPR \(EU\), CCPA \(California\), or other local jurisdictional requirements, as legal bases for processing vary wildly.

Journey Context:
Developers often ask agents to 'write a user deletion script' based on US standards. If deployed for EU users, GDPR Article 17 requires specific 'right to be forgotten' compliance that goes beyond soft deletion. Agents must not silently generate code that creates legal compliance gaps across borders.
