Reddit users report sudden wave of refusals from Claude with no clear cause
astrorocks · reddit · 2026-10-06
- A Reddit user who uses Claude for creative writing editing reports that since yesterday the model suddenly refuses nearly every request, including small coding tasks.
- The user says content is not rule-violating, and neither they nor the model can identify what is triggering the refusals, making work nearly impossible; they ask for workarounds.
- A typical report of tightened safety guardrails affecting legitimate use; not yet confirmed as widespread.
