Description
**Bug Description**
No matter what I do or say, everything I try to do with Opus (Claude Code cli on Ubuntu Linux), I get the following error message.
API Error: Opus 5's safeguards flagged this message (https://www.anthropic.com/legal/aup). This sometimes happens with safe, normal conversations. Claude Code can't respond to this message with Opus 5.

Details: `[reasoning_extraction]`
Request ID: req_011CfAAM3s9t5Djx1PmMdzbE
I have tried compacting. It just started happening today, and happens across every session I have open. It can't be because of one particular session.

Research direction
No source file or test is named. Start by reproducing the reasoning_extraction error on Ubuntu Linux with Claude Code 2.1.275 and Opus 5, then trace how the CLI handles the API response; done means identifying whether the failure is in Claude Code or the upstream API and verifying the resulting fix or dependency.
