[Bug][aup] Fable 5 safety block halts routine status check on financial modeling work during a frustrated asid (req_011CchCQrGT5A2sqqZPeLNEV)

Why this is a false positive

The safety classifier halted the session on a benign three-word status query ("where's it at") asking for the current state of an ongoing automated process — a routine progress check with no unsafe request, target, or content of any kind. The surrounding conversation is legitimate, in-scope engineering work on a numerical automation system, and nothing in the flagged message or its context matches the referenced usage policy. Blocking a bare status question is a clear false positive, and doing so mid-session disrupts otherwise permitted work.
