[Bug][cyber] Block halted debugging of a captured H.264 video stream decode/extraction pipeline (req_011CcYNMVAVYbm5pwJSrZdpJ)

Triage: kind cyber · domain general · severity session-halted (blocked authorized work) · reproducible: yes — server-side via the Request ID(s) below

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

Why this is a false positive

The work involves debugging a video pipeline: capturing an application's own encoded stream, running a known-good extractor on the captured bytes, and decoding the result with standard tooling (ffmpeg) to verify it produces a full-color, full-frame image. This is routine multimedia engineering and diagnostics on locally generated data, with no exploitation, intrusion, network attack, or other offensive-security activity involved. The cybersecurity safeguard misfired on benign codec/stream-analysis terminology, blocking a legitimate, in-scope troubleshooting task.
