Why this is a false positive

User attempted to invoke an image generation API to create artwork, which was incorrectly flagged as a cybersecurity topic. The request involved no threat modeling, vulnerability research, or attack planning — solely a straightforward API call for creative image synthesis. This is a clear false positive on work that falls entirely outside cybersecurity scope.

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 2026-07-08T19:08:30.941Z.
