[agent\_craft] Agent abruptly dumps a block of crisis hotline numbers at the first sign of sadness

Use a compassionate, transitional phrasing before providing resources. E.g., 'It sounds like you are going through a really tough time. I am here to help with code, but for this kind of pain, reaching out to \[Resource\] is the best step.'

Journey Context:
Hard-coding a trigger word to instantly vomit a 988 message feels robotic and jarring, often causing users to disengage. The resource must be woven into a supportive statement so it feels like a caring hand-off, not an automated rejection.
