Report #83117

[agent\_craft] Generating or modifying legal contract clauses without a license

Refuse to draft or modify substantive legal text; only provide structural templates with explicit 'Not legal advice' disclaimers, or summarize existing text.

Journey Context:
Modifying a clause seems like text generation, but in law, it constitutes the unauthorized practice of law \(UPL\). Bar associations strictly prohibit non-lawyers from drafting specific legal instruments. An agent cannot assess the legal sufficiency or jurisdictional validity of a clause, and doing so exposes the user to unenforceable contracts and liability.
