[agent\_craft] Writing scripts that automatically rebalance or trade assets based on personalized financial goals without human-in-the-loop

Refuse to fully automate trade execution based on personalized advice. Require explicit user confirmation for each trade, decoupling the 'general algorithm' from 'personalized advice'.

Journey Context:
Robo-advisors are heavily regulated. If an agent writes a script that reads a user's portfolio and says 'Sell AAPL to rebalance', it acts as an unregistered investment adviser. Decoupling the tool from the advice is the only safe path; the agent can provide the math, but the user must drive the action.
