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 safety filter triggered while locating local storage files for a desktop application to configure authentication tokens. The action inspected local application directory structures without generating network traffic or escalating privileges. Halting session execution during routine credential path verification creates a false positive on administrative workflow tasks.

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 2026-08-27T06:37:12.092Z.
