Why this is a false positive

A generic request to examine the current status of a project triggered Opus 4.8's cybersecurity safeguard and halted the session, despite containing no security-related content or intent. This appears to be a false positive, as reviewing project state is a benign, everyday development task with no cyber-use-case characteristics. The block forced the session to restart, disrupting legitimate work with no clear trigger term to explain the flag.

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 2026-07-07T01:18:46.156Z.
