DisclaimerUnofficial, and not affiliated with Anthropic. Nearly all of this is read straight out of what ships: npm bundles, captured prompts, published docs. Anthropic's own notes go in verbatim, marked as theirs. The rest is my reading, and every entry carries the strings behind it. If one looks wrong, vote it down and say why.

Refusal records remember whether any step of the episode was a cyber refusal

Under the hood
Useful2 Signal3
Safety Fallbacks

Refusal records now remember if any step of an episode was a cyber refusal, so restores re-arm protection.

What

Refusal-fallback records persist a new saw_cyber_refusal field, also echoed in the SDK event stream. Its description says it is set when any hop of a banner's episode was a cyber refusal, not just the first, and that it exists so the CLI can re-arm its cyber-exclusion header when a session is restored.

Details
  • Marked internal and never rendered to the user; written whenever the condition holds, with no gate.

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
