Bug Description
I was using Claude Code for cybersecurity research and penetration testing work. After these sessions, your safeguards started flagging ALL my messages — even a simple "hi" in a brand new conversation gets blocked. I understand the safeguards triggered on my security-related work. However, the current behavior blocks literally everything, making the tool completely unusable for any purpose — not just security work. Thank you.
