Vague Triggers

Medium
Confidence
94% confidence
Finding
The trigger list is unusually broad and includes generic phrases such as peace and conflict, history of violence, psychology of violence, homicide rates, and even installation/help language, which can cause the skill to activate in many unrelated conversations. Overbroad activation can hijack user intent, expose users to unsolicited framing or persuasion, and interfere with routing to more appropriate skills or system behavior.
