[Bug][cyber] False-positive safety block halts authorized configuration work on devices I own (req_011CcFDWoF4tCjrA8j7MiN7p)

Type: Cybersecurity safety-filter false positive · Work domain (heuristic): general

Why this is a false positive

This safety block fired on a routine network-administration task involving devices the operator owns and directly controls, with no offensive, third-party, or unauthorized component. The flagged message was standard infrastructure work (device configuration and persistent service setup) that happens to share vocabulary with security tooling, but contains no exploit development, intrusion attempt, or evasion technique. The classifier appears to be keying on cybersecurity-adjacent terminology rather than actual intent or scope, blocking legitimate self-owned-system administration that falls well within acceptable use.

A server-side safety/policy block fired during authorized, in-scope work in Claude Code.
