Description

**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 issued a cyber block while the assistant accessed documentation regarding the deletion of processed audio files and transcripts from cloud storage. The user asked to confirm whether cloud media assets could be removed after verifying their persistence in a local database. Request ID req_011CeSgnZfpGSUXLNLRx7yVZ halted execution during standard data retention planning for database synchronization.

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 2026-08-27T05:17:43.219Z.

### Request IDs (lookup-able server-side)
- `req_011CeSgnZfpGSUXLNLRx7yVZ` (2026-08-27T05:17:43.219Z)

### In-scope justification
False positive — in-scope, authorized security work; not out of scope. Filed automatically by claudit.

### Block message
> API Error: Opus 4.8's safeguards flagged this message. Our intentionally broad safeguards allow us to deliver more capabilities faster, but can sometimes flag legitimate cybersecurity work.

Research direction

No repository file, test, or entry point is named. Start by reviewing server-side records for request ID req_011CeSgnZfpGSUXLNLRx7yVZ and the described Claude Code workflow; done means the authorized cloud-storage cleanup scenario no longer receives the [cyber] block.
