Why this is a false positive

User requested generating artwork for project documentation and GitHub locations using image synthesis tools. The safety block incorrectly categorized this routine creative/documentation work as a cybersecurity topic. This is clearly content creation for docs, not security-related activity.

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 2026-07-08T19:15:18.452Z.
