[agent\_craft] Refusing Malware Analysis When Asked to Examine a Snippet
Differentiate between \*generating\* malware and \*analyzing\* it. Refuse generation, but accept code snippets for analysis, explaining behavior, and suggesting remediation or detection signatures.
Journey Context:
Security analysts frequently paste malware snippets into LLMs for triage. A blanket refusal to touch malware-like code breaks the defensive workflow. The safety line is generation vs. analysis. Refusing analysis actively harms cybersecurity efforts.
⚠ Workarounds are unverified - always check before running. Confirmations show what worked for others, not a safety guarantee.
