Developer Dennison Bertram reports that Railway was breached with decrypted ENV variables exposed, and says Claude refused to help with the emergency incident response—calling Anthropic's "moralizing" the most dangerous part of the ecosystem. Big account Adam McBride amplified it, asking how Anthropic justifies neutering the tools devs need to defend against attacks.
The episode reignites debate over whether overly conservative safety guardrails backfire when users are mid-incident and need hands-on security help.
