Description

**Bug Description**
Fable 5's safeguards flagged this message. Our intentionally broad safeguards allow us to deliver more capabilities faster, but can sometimes flag legitimate coding, cybersecurity, and biology tasks. Switched to Opus 4.8. Send feedback wit

**Environment Info**
- Platform: win32
- Terminal: windows-terminal
- Version: 2.1.229
- Feedback ID: e5aef048-0e92-4e04-98f0-840c25620f27

**Errors**
```json
[]
```

I was just running on my own code and a db with fake data. and asked claude to give me a script so that a colleague could reproduce what I did. I gave me that error and move me to Opus. This is unacceptable as it was not a security problem.

Research direction

No source file, test, or entry point is named in the report. Start by reproducing the safety flag with the provided Windows environment, version, and feedback ID, then trace how the flagged response is handled; done means the cause of the false positive is identified and legitimate requests no longer trigger the reported behavior.
