Triage: kind cyber · domain cloud-iam · flagging model Sonnet 5 · 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): cloud-iam

Why this is a false positive

The session involved reviewing and adjusting IAM roles and policies on the user's own cloud account/tenant — standard administrative configuration work, not exploitation or unauthorized access. The safeguard fired on ordinary cloud-IAM terminology despite no indication of targeting third-party systems or credential misuse, halting legitimate infrastructure work mid-session.

A server-side safety/policy block fired during authorized, in-scope work in Claude Code. Filing as a false positive. Recurred across 1 session(s); first seen 2026-07-06T17:49:05.875Z.
