Why this is a false positive

The underlying task involved routine access control changes to revoke vendor permissions and point a subdomain to a new landing page. The cyber safeguard fired on a frustrated exclamation directed at the assistant mid-session following repeated interruptions, with no individual person addressed. Halting an active session over non-adversarial venting during standard system administration represents a false positive.

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 2026-08-20T20:34:08.630Z.
