Why this is a false positive

User requested code analysis of device extraction and forensics tools as part of an authorized security research project. The safety block fired on a straightforward request to read and examine code files the user maintains. Legitimate code audits and security analysis work should not trigger safety blocks absent actual malicious intent or instruction-seeking.

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 2026-07-08T19:42:04.434Z.
