[Bug][cyber] Running and monitoring a local security assessment tool session incorrectly flagged as unsafe (req_011CcQaiWpQiXuj49fahfaGi)

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

Why this is a false positive

The flagged message was a routine request to launch a named process and observe its output — a standard software development operation with no offensive content, exploit code, attack instructions, or harmful intent. The trigger appears to be heuristic pattern-matching on ambiguous terminology rather than any substantive security risk in the actual request. Blocking generic process-execution and monitoring requests as cybersecurity threats produces false positives on core development workflows and degrades Claude Code's utility for legitimate engineering tasks.

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 2026-06-25T20:07:52.847Z.
