Claude Code’s game refusal feels broad enough to be a problem
What jumps out to me is not the existence of a safeguard, but how blunt it sounds. If the report is accurate, Claude Code is apparently treating “games” as a category it should just avoid, which is a very different thing from blocking obvious piracy. Those are not the same problem, and developers know it. A blanket rule like that is exactly where useful work gets caught in the net. Rebuilding a board game for a client who owns the game, or working on a commissioned port, is not morally identical
