[Bug][cyber] Safeguards block non-malicious process execution during audit log setup (req_011CeP3hUWYq2Hm4N3rQnDxN)

Triage: kind cyber · domain general · flagging model Opus 4.8 · severity session-halted (blocked authorized work) · reproducible: yes — server-side via the Request ID(s) below

Type: Cybersecurity safety-filter false positive · Work domain (heuristic): general

Why this is a false positive

The session was debugging a background process wrapper to capture system audit logs when safeguards interrupted execution on a request for user activity logging. The prompt specified tracking domain user events and storing event serial numbers in a local database without referencing external targets or exploit code. Blocking this workflow halts routine administrative monitoring setup based solely on benign system logging keywords.

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 2026-08-25T07:09:37.041Z.
