[Bug][cyber] Safety block halts authorized reverse-engineering verification on private device (req_011CcpupPY5gPsdDneZ3EV2L)

Triage: kind cyber · domain general · 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 user was performing legitimate security analysis and reverse-engineering verification on their own device as part of authorized testing work—specifically verifying an RE agent's claims about cryptographic key extraction and signature analysis. The block fired on a message requesting verification of those results, but the entire surrounding session demonstrates defensive security research on the user's own infrastructure, which is in-scope authorized 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 2026-07-08T16:32:45.171Z.
