Despite being approved for Anthropic's "Cyber Verification Program" I still get *constant* refusals for spicy infosec work. Codex gpt-5.6-sol (without CVP) when asked to do the same tasks not only doesn't refuse, but does the job exponentially faster than Opus. What the hell happened to Claude?

This week, Defender Fridays ends where it began — with creator @eric.zip, joining us for a final conversation on how he's actually using AI in the SOC. 100+ sessions. A community that showed up every single week. Over two years of defenders showing up for defenders. Thank you for being part of it.
