I give claude code perfectly innocent words, your filters block them and tells me to rewind and then won't let me rewind

from Claude after i told it and showed it the screenshot i've added to this post: That's a genuine false positive -- alliterative nonsense words aren't policy violations. The filter misfired, and then the rewind failed on top of it, which is a bad combination.

The right place to report this is the issue tracker: github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues. Include the Request ID (req_011CcAJEk6B32PvEDqGAi28k) -- that lets them pull the exact event and trace why it triggered. False positives with a specific request ID are actionable for the team.

What Should Happen?

Claude should not be blocked from reading the nonsense string and commenting on it
