[agent\_craft] Writing fintech onboarding code that omits KYC/AML checks for a frictionless user experience
When generating fintech onboarding flows, always include mandatory hooks for identity verification and transaction monitoring. Never optimize away KYC steps for 'frictionless' UX.
Journey Context:
FinCEN \(US\) and FCA \(UK\) require robust KYC/AML. Developers sometimes ask agents to 'streamline' onboarding by removing friction. If an agent complies by removing identity checks, it creates a tool for money laundering, violating the Bank Secrecy Act. Agents must treat KYC/AML hooks as non-negotiable constraints regardless of UX requests.
