What issue are you seeing?

I was investigating a Ruby timeout in GCP.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

Uploaded thread: 01a036b5-e11f-7a50-9a6f-c2ea8b2bb3f0

What is the expected behavior?

The investigation should complete successfully without being blocked.

Reproduce the suspected safeguard false positive with Codex CLI 0.154.0 on Darwin arm64 using the supplied cmux environment and inspect the security safeguard entry point. The payload names no source file or test; done means identifying the triggering condition and confirming that legitimate usage is no longer incorrectly blocked without weakening the safeguard.
