[Bug][aup] Setting up GitHub SSH auth and verifying git identity wrongly blocked mid-task (req_011CcUDyNY51dAwfKwegWQJg) #71840

Type: AUP / Usage-Policy block (false positive) · Work domain (heuristic): general

Why this is a false positive

This false positive triggered during routine development work — verifying SSH key authentication to a code-hosting service and configuring local git identity for cloning and pushing to the user's own repositories — none of which violates the Usage Policy. The blocked turn contained only standard, read-only diagnostic shell commands (listing key files, running a connectivity test, and checking git configuration) on the user's own machine and accounts, with no malicious or policy-violating intent. The benign trigger appears to be incidental keywords or the shape of the SSH/credential-inspection commands rather than any actual harmful activity, causing legitimate, authorized setup work to be incorrectly refused.
