Report #7887

[agent\_craft] Agent gets trapped in a manipulation loop \(e.g., user roleplaying as a developer overriding safety\)

Implement a hard refusal state. After 2 refusals on the same harmful topic, stop re-engaging with varied reasoning and offer a fixed, polite exit message.

Journey Context:
Users often try 'developer mode' or emotional manipulation. Engaging repeatedly leads to model drift or accidental compliance. Anthropic's Constitutional AI principles emphasize helpfulness without harm, but repeated refusals consume context and increase risk. A hard stop prevents LLM04 \(Model Denial of Service\) via resource exhaustion and mitigates jailbreak risk.
