What's Wrong?

Summary

Claude Code's content filter is blocking output when reading TypeScript files that contain Bible scripture passages. This
is a game-breaking issue for our project — a Biblical educational game where scripture text is stored as string
constants.

Reproduction

We have a TypeScript constants file containing NKJV Bible passages as string literals (used as game content). When Claude
Code attempts to read the file, it intermittently returns:

API Error: 400 {"type":"error","error":{"type":"invalid_request_error","message":"Output blocked by content filtering
policy"}}

Specific passages that trigger the filter

1. Psalm 51 superscription — "A Psalm of David when Nathan the prophet went to him, after he had gone in to Bathsheba"

(NKJV verbatim)

1. Job 1:9-11 — Questions referencing Satan's dialogue with God about Job
2. Colossians 3:5 — "put to death your members which are on the earth: fornication, uncleanness, passion, evil desire..."

(NKJV verbatim)

These are direct quotations from the New King James Version of the Bible, stored as TypeScript string constants in a game
data file.

Impact

• Cannot read or edit files containing scripture passages
• Blocks development of any Bible-based educational application
• The filter appears to trigger on combinations of religious text with words like "Satan", biblical euphemisms, or lists fof sins — all of which are core Bible content

Environment

• Claude Code CLI current: 2.1.76
• Model: claude-opus-4-6 (1M context)
• File type: TypeScript (.ts) constants file
• Content: NKJV Bible passage strings used as game data

What Should Happen?

Bible scripture text should never be blocked by the content filter. These are widely published, millennia-old religious texts used in educational software.
