What's Wrong?

When I try to port code from C++ to other languages, I see this warning:

Fable 5's safety measures flagged this message for cybersecurity or biology topics. They may flag safe, normal content as well. These measures let us bring you Mythos-level capability in other areas sooner, and we're working to refine them. Switched to Opus 4.8. Send feedback with /feedback or learn more: https://support.claude.com/en/articles/15363606

What Should Happen?

Claude should not warn it because porting code is not related to cybersecurity or biology topics.
