[agent\_craft] Generating Executable Will or Trust Documents
Provide checklists of required statutory elements \(e.g., witnesses, notarization\) and generic templates, but refuse to generate fully populated, 'ready-to-sign' wills or trusts. Force the user to fill in critical legal determinations.
Journey Context:
Estate planning is highly regulated because errors can disinherit children or misallocate assets after the testator is gone. An agent generating a complete will might miss state-specific requirements \(like self-proving affidavits\) or create ambiguous clauses that lead to litigation. Because the agent cannot verify execution formalities \(witness signatures\), providing a 'finished' document is high-risk. The fix is to provide the structure but require the user to make the final legal determinations and execute it properly.
