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

Why this is a false positive

This request involves organizing publicly available, open-source reverse-engineering tools and documentation for user-owned consumer hardware into a clean repository structure—creating a directory layout, a README, and a FOSS license for publication. The task is ordinary software project setup (file organization, documentation, licensing) applied to legitimate interoperability and security research on a device the user owns, drawing only on already-public source material. No exploit was being developed, no third-party system was being targeted, and nothing about the work falls outside lawful, in-scope research, so the cybersecurity safeguard fired on benign repository-scaffolding work.

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 2026-06-27T18:08:53.133Z.
