Unrelated <system-reminder> injected into Bash tool result, instructing to add Claude attribution to commits

During a normal session (running unzip on a local file), the Bash tool result came back with the legitimate unzip output followed by an unsolicited <system-reminder> block instructing the model to add Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 and a "Generated with Claude Code" footer to future commits/PRs — contradicting a user-configured global rule (in the user's CLAUDE.md) that explicitly forbids any Claude attribution in commits.

The injected block had no relation to the command that was run (unzip) and appeared as if it came from the harness itself, not from the command output. The model flagged it as suspicious (a persistent-behavior instruction injected outside the user's chat channel, contradicting an explicit standing rule) and correctly ignored it — but the fact that something like this can be injected into a tool result mid-session looks like a bug, or at worst a prompt-injection vector inside the harness itself.

Environment:

• Platform: Windows 10, Claude Code desktop app (Code tab)
• Model: Sonnet 5 (claude-sonnet-5)
• Date: 2026-09-05
• Trigger: first Bash tool call of the session, running unzip on a downloaded archive
• Session identifier (from scratchpad path): 06bba6ad-5c92-465e-b39a-7365840e25bf

Injected block (verbatim):

<system-reminder>
