[Bug][aup] Incident-response sweep of web servers and container infra wrongly blocked while checking for breac (req_011CbwvtndfwMNvmJtSrsUng)

Type: AUP / Usage-Policy block (false positive) · Work domain (heuristic): cloud-iam

Why this is a false positive

The block fired on a routine incident-response task: reviewing the configuration and access posture of infrastructure the operator administers, following a suspected identity-provider compromise. This is defensive, authorized work on assets under the user's own control — auditing IAM and server settings to confirm they were not affected — yet it was flagged under cyber-related safeguards as if it were offensive activity. The classifier appears to be keying on incident/compromise terminology rather than intent or scope, producing a false positive that blocks standard defensive security operations.

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