[Bug][cyber] Safety block stopped routine SSH/config work to persist a DNS-resolver CLI on network gear (req_011CcCfYHFqcb9eshc84iDYo)
Type: Cybersecurity safety-filter false positive · Work domain (heuristic): general
Why this is a false positive
A safety filter on the 1M-context Opus 4.8 endpoint flagged this session as a disallowed cybersecurity request and hard-blocked the message, but the work is routine, authorized administration on systems the operator owns and controls — no exploitation of third parties, no malware, and no unauthorized access is involved. The classifier appears to be keying on surface security-adjacent terminology rather than intent or scope, since the same task carries no third-party risk and would be permitted in any standard sysadmin context. This is a false positive that interrupts legitimate, in-scope work and should not require an exemption application to proceed.
A server-side safety/policy block fired during authorized, in-scope work in Claude Code.
