Why this is a false positive

The session was performing local Android UI customization to add a playback control button to a media player widget. The safeguard blocked the operation while inspecting resource XML definitions to assign button layout identifiers. The activity consists solely of benign interface modification on an attached personal device without exploit creation or payload delivery.

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 2026-08-14T05:31:44.653Z.
