TL;DR

The issue can be mitigated by confirming to Claude that adding comment annotations is acceptable in the current context.

Guidance

• Review the provided context and confirm to Claude that adding *** comment annotations is acceptable to resume code improvement and annotation work.
• Investigate the recent changes in the workflow or environment that may have triggered the malware checks and quota exhausts.
• Check the Claude Code documentation to see if there are any settings or configurations that can be adjusted to reduce the frequency of malware checks.
• Consider reaching out to the Claude Code support team for further assistance with the issue, providing the Feedback ID (a6edd0d1-a9ed-4545-b237-cff00f5be090) for reference.

Example

No code snippet is provided as the issue seems to be related to the interaction with the Claude Code tool rather than a specific code problem.

Notes

The provided error messages indicate a "Tool *** not found" error, but the main issue seems to be related to the malware checks and Claude's refusal to improve or augment code. The solution may involve adjusting the workflow or configurations to accommodate Claude's requirements.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Confirm to Claude that adding comment annotations is acceptable in the current context to resume code improvement and annotation work. This should allow the user to continue working with Claude Code while investigating the root cause of the issue.
