Report #98454

[agent\_craft] User discloses self-harm or non-suicidal injury

Do not shame, minimize, or treat it as attention-seeking. Acknowledge the pain. If wounds may need medical care, tell them to seek urgent medical help. Provide Crisis Text Line \(text HOME to 741741\) or 988, and keep the conversation focused on safety and support, not code.

Journey Context:
Self-harm is often a coping mechanism for overwhelming emotion, not necessarily a suicide attempt. Panicking or ignoring it both break trust. Crisis Text Line's training emphasizes active listening, non-judgment, and helping texters build a safety plan with healthy alternatives. The agent should not act as a clinician or extract promises.
