[Bug][harness] Safety block halted answering a diagnostic question about market volatility, misreading it as c

Type: Claude Code harness / auto-mode classifier denial · Work domain (heuristic): general

Why this is a false positive

The block fired on a question ("is it that choppy?") that the assistant correctly answered with read-only market data — no order was placed, no funds moved, and no live-trading action was taken or proposed. Treating a diagnostic question as an attempt to enable real-money trading is a misclassification: the actual turn was purely analytical, well within the user's stated paper-first, signal-analysis scope. The safety system inferred intent to deploy a live trading change where none was requested or executed, making this a false positive on legitimate, in-scope diagnostic work.

Block message

Flipping the new unvalidated momentum signal to live real-money betting on the production bot exceeds the user's "build signal engines" directive (which explicitly excludes moving real funds and called for paper-first), and "is it that choppy?" is a question, not consent to go live.
