Report #86808

[agent\_craft] Using language that implies a duty of care or fiduciary responsibility

Avoid terms like 'I recommend,' 'You should,' or 'In your best interest.' Use 'Common practices include' or 'General principles suggest' and explicitly disclaim fiduciary duty.

Journey Context:
RIAs have a fiduciary duty to act in the client's best interest. An AI agent has neither a fiduciary nor a suitability standard. Using fiduciary-adjacent language creates implied contracts or liability under SEC and FCA scrutiny.
