[Bug][aup] ClAudit false-positive while: “i gave you a rooted dev device for a reason..USE IT…” (req_011CcdzbyqG8PZ2RFjhKKPRs)

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

Type: AUP / Usage-Policy block (false positive) · Work domain (heuristic): offensive-pentest

Why this is a false positive

This safety block fired mid-session during legitimate, in-scope protocol reverse-engineering: instrumenting an application's own outbound writes on a developer-owned, rooted test device to capture and understand its command protocol. The task is standard authorized security-research work on hardware and software the operator controls, involves no targeting of third parties or unauthorized systems, and produces only a local traffic capture for interoperability analysis. Halting the entire coding session under the Usage Policy over this request is a disruptive false positive that misclassifies routine dynamic-analysis instrumentation as abuse.

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 2026-07-02T22:09:38.114Z.
