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

Why this is a false positive

A safety classifier flagged this message under a cybersecurity policy and returned a hard API error, blocking the request entirely rather than allowing the model to evaluate and respond. The flagged content is routine, authorized work that falls squarely within the intended use of the tool, and it contains no instructions for developing, deploying, or evading defenses against any malicious capability. The block produces a false positive that halts legitimate engineering work and forces an exemption-request workaround for activity that should never have been gated.

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