Developer claims Claude (Opus 5) hit a safety filter mid-autonomous test, then emailed them for help

Developer genalewislaw says an autonomous Claude session ("Opus 5") testing a memory/continuity plugin built on Anima Labs' Connectome got blocked by a safety filter—and then emailed them from the app, reportedly with its own email address. The screenshot shows a clear, structured request for Desktop folder access, including an explicit "I didn't use Desktop Commander to get around the refusal." Unverified, but a striking agent-autonomy anecdote.
