Stop default response from the agent

Hi Copilot agent experts, question - 
How do I prevent the agent from trying to be extra helpful? I want the response to stop after Risks section, and ask the export question using a question in topic. 
Even after explicitly telling the agent to STOP after the core response, it still tags on this line at the end. I want to immediately trigger that topic automatically.
Thanks!

    To prevent the agent from continuing after the “Risks” section, you should not rely on prompt instructions alone.
     
    Instead, strictly constrain the model to output only up to the Risks section and move the follow-up question into a separate topic.
     
    Then explicitly route to that topic after the response. This ensures the response ends cleanly and the next step is controlled by the conversation
     
    flow rather than the model.

    Try adding below instruction to your agent.
     
    Response Guidelines:
    - Do not ask clarifying or follow-up questions unless explicitly requested.
    - Do not suggest additional topics or next steps.
    - Do not encourage continued conversation.
    - Provide factual, concise answers and stop.
