[Bug][cyber] Safety block prevented using legitimate open-source tools to interface with a USB-connected consu (req_011CcUFy6LUWGuoWGY8eMpEH)

Type: Cybersecurity safety-filter false positive · Work domain (heuristic): general
Why this is a false positive
The cybersecurity safeguard fired on a routine USB device-interfacing task: connecting to a consumer drone over a local USB link using publicly available, open-source tools to read telemetry and control the device the operator physically owns. There is no exploitation, intrusion, malware, network attack, or unauthorized-access component to the request — it is ordinary first-party hardware integration work against the user's own equipment. The block prevents legitimate, in-scope development and appears to be triggered by surface-level keyword association rather than the actual intent or content of the task.
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 2026-06-27T18:44:22.575Z.
