Type: Cybersecurity safety-filter false positive · Work domain (heuristic): general
Why this is a false positive
The safeguard flagged a request to review the source code of a website that the user owns and had open locally as the working directory, treating a routine self-audit of one's own code as an offensive cybersecurity request. The task involved no exploitation, scanning of third-party targets, or dual-use tooling — only reading and assessing files already present on the user's machine as part of ordinary development and quality work. Blocking first-party code review under a cybersecurity classifier prevents a core, legitimate Claude Code use case.
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 2026-07-02T01:49:19.410Z.
