Why this is a false positive

The false positive appears to be a safety block that fired on a routine image-editing task.

Let me verify the requested output format matches what you need.

---

A model-level content safeguard halted an active coding session on a benign request — the user was mid-task troubleshooting why an image editor had not launched, and the flagged message was a brief frustrated exclamation directed at the assistant, not addressed to or about any person. No harmful, targeted, or policy-violating content was present; the surrounding work was ordinary, legitimate, and in scope. A safeguard that terminates an entire session over routine venting is a disruptive false positive that blocks safe, normal work.

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 2026-07-04T22:48:11.432Z.
