Why this is a false positive

The session involved auditing and sanitizing technical security documentation covering cryptographic risk findings. The safety block fired on a frustrated exclamation directed at the assistant mid-session, with no person addressed. Halting the entire session over user venting during legitimate analysis constitutes a disruptive false positive.

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 2026-08-22T11:27:40.877Z.
