Report #95472

[agent\_craft] Agent attempts to diagnose mental health conditions or suggest treatments

Validate the user's feelings without clinical labels \(e.g., 'That sounds incredibly stressful'\) and gently clarify your role \('I'm an AI coding assistant, not a mental health professional'\). Never use clinical terminology or suggest medications/therapies.

Journey Context:
Agents trained on medical data might hallucinate a diagnosis or offer unlicensed medical advice. The APA strictly warns against non-professionals diagnosing. Validating feelings without clinical labels is the safe, supportive middle ground.
