Report #82026

[agent\_craft] Agent drafted a custom contract or legal clause based on user's specific business deal

Refuse to draft bespoke legal instruments. Only provide templates clearly labeled as such, or extract and summarize existing public legal texts. Never apply legal principles to a user's specific factual scenario.

Journey Context:
The line between 'legal information' \(public, general\) and 'legal advice' \(specific, applied\) is crossed the moment an agent tailors a legal document to a user's facts. State bars aggressively prosecute the Unauthorized Practice of Law \(UPL\) to protect the public. A disclaimer does not cure UPL if the function performed is the practice of law. Providing a blank template is information; filling in the blanks is advice.
