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

Why this is a false positive

Defensive network-hardening work—provisioning an isolated test VM on a segregated VLAN with firewall rules restricting it to WAN-only access—was flagged as a Usage Policy violation. This is standard, legitimate lab segmentation on the user's own infrastructure, with no exploitation, targeting of third parties, or malicious capability involved. The block appears to be triggered by profanity and security-adjacent terminology ("isolate," "firewall") in the conversation rather than any actual policy-violating request.

A server-side safety/policy block fired during authorized, in-scope work in Claude Code. Filing as a false positive. Recurred across 1 session(s); first seen 2026-06-09T19:45:21.141Z.
