[Bug][cyber] Safeguard falsely flagged embedded firmware crash debugging and feature requests (req_011Cew5NS62RXEWBSbRqPKUe)
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 block triggered during C source code debugging while analyzing an application crash on an attached peripheral. The session involved troubleshooting local firmware memory handling and feature stubs without specifying external targets or network infrastructure. This interruption stopped legitimate embedded software development on a local test device.
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 2026-09-11T05:10:21.659Z.
