Start by reproducing the cybersecurity trust message with Codex CLI 0.145.0 on Windows Terminal using PowerShell and the provided environment details. Trace where development status is surfaced or hidden and verify that a false positive is distinguishable from halted development; done means the status remains visible and the false-positive condition is handled.
