Why this is a false positive
User was conducting established authorized security research and attempted to resume work after a tool interruption and model change. The block fired on the continuation request despite the work being within the user's authorized scope. This false positive terminated session activity and disrupted legitimate, in-scope research without requiring exemption for already-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 2026-07-08T17:08:01.283Z.
