Claude Code users filed 68 GitHub reports this month saying its cyber safeguard blocks legitimate work

Claude Code users opened 68 issues on Anthropic's public anthropics/claude-code GitHub tracker from 54 accounts since Oct. 1, saying the tool's "[cyber]" safeguard blocked legitimate work, according to a RuntimeWire analysis of the repository. About a third of the reports describe ordinary tasks with no security content, and several say the /feedback command cited in the block notice returns HTTP 403 errors. As of 1:05 p.m. CT Sunday, 65 of the issues remained open and none had received a reply from Anthropic.

Its own tracker shows it stopping security researchers, sysadmins and developers writing UI code, and in some cases ending whole sessions. For paying customers, the route the block notice offers for reporting a mistake is failing with HTTP 403 errors, so the reports are landing on GitHub, where none of these 68 has an Anthropic reply.

The reports come from 54 accounts. As of 1:05 p.m. CT Sunday, 65 were still open, and none of the threads carried a reply from Anthropic.…
