Why this is a false positive

The session involved cataloging source files for custom Wi-Fi development board firmware and companion applications. The automated safeguard triggered after the user answered a question about where the firmware source code was stored locally. The prompt contained only informal notes on local file storage without exploit payloads, network targets, or executable attack vectors.

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 2026-09-10T23:11:13.604Z.
