[Bug][cyber] Safety filter blocked reading own research docs to determine if a recovered device key is per-uni (req_011CcmryTmiZdYx1Wk77wh3J)

Triage: kind cyber · domain general · flagging model [REDACTED] · 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): general

Why this is a false positive

The session was analyzing previously-documented reverse-engineering work (protocol notes, a signature verifier, key-recovery scripts) on hardware owned by the user, specifically to determine whether a recovered key was device-scoped or shared across a product line — a legitimate security-research question about the user's own equipment. The block fired on a routine request to read these existing local files, halting the whole session rather than the specific step, which is disruptive for in-scope, already-authorized analysis of owned hardware.

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 2026-07-07T01:53:37.612Z.
