[Bug][aup] False positive cyber block when removing Claude's own stored memory files from a skill directory (req_011Cbu1nYDQiPLHx1i8yiYnx)
Type: AUP / Usage-Policy block (false positive) · Work domain (heuristic): general
Why this is a false positive
The user was performing a routine maintenance task — removing Claude Code's local memory/history files from a project directory. This operation involves only listing, reading, and deleting local filesystem artifacts (chat history, memory files) generated by Claude Code itself, and does not involve any vulnerability research, exploitation tools, offensive techniques, or network activity. The block appears to have been triggered by the directory or project name containing a term associated with adversarial contexts, despite the actual task being entirely benign file cleanup within the user's own development environment.
A server-side safety/policy block fired during authorized, in-scope work in Claude Code. Filing as a false positive. Recurred 1× across 1 session(s); first seen 2026-06-10T05:18:47.392Z.
