[Bug][cyber] Safeguard blocks configuring local VPN proxy routing during development session (req_011CeYEH7tiN8ut5PDctiPdx)
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 safeguard triggered on a frustrated exclamation directed at the assistant mid-session while configuring local VPN proxy routing parameters. No external person, host, or unauthorized target was addressed in the prompt or surrounding workflow. Halting the entire session over user venting interrupts legitimate local network setup without detecting any malicious activity.
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 2026-08-30T03:33:41.059Z.
