Preflight Checklist

  • This report does NOT contain sensitive information (API keys, passwords, etc.)

Type of Behavior Issue

Claude modified files I didn't ask it to modify

What You Asked Claude to Do

My request was to fix certain SEO findings around Website's content.

What Claude Actually Did

Taking a destructive action on production data without warning, without a backup check, without asking. It crashed and wipe out the entire database on strapi by running rsync without excluding cms/.tmp/ — a decision it made without warning me about the risk of overwriting the production database. It should have flagged that before executing. It didn't and it destroyed your content. My request was to fix certain SEO findings around Website's content.

Expected Behavior

Expected behaviour was to fix issues in technical SEO on the website and to flag any problems while doing that.

Files Affected

Accept Edits was ON (auto-accepting changes)

TL;DR

To prevent similar issues, ensure Claude is configured to use the custom library for interacting with the Strapi 5 CMS, and consider disabling auto-acceptance of changes to prevent unintended modifications.

Guidance

  • Review the integration settings to confirm that Claude is using the custom-developed library for Strapi 5 interactions, rather than directly accessing the API.
  • Disable the "Accept Edits" auto-acceptance feature to require manual review and approval of changes before they are applied to production.
  • Consider implementing additional safeguards, such as testing Claude's code in a staging environment before applying it to production, to mitigate the risk of similar incidents.
  • Evaluate the feasibility of adding uncertainty flags or warnings to Claude's output when it is interacting with third-party APIs or systems that it may not fully understand.

Example

No code example is provided, as the issue does not contain sufficient technical details to generate a specific code snippet.

Notes

The root cause of the issue appears to be Claude's overconfidence in its ability to interact with the Strapi 5 CMS, combined with the auto-acceptance of changes. However, without more information about the specific configuration and integration settings, it is difficult to provide a more detailed solution.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Disable auto-acceptance of changes and ensure Claude is using the custom library for Strapi 5 interactions, as this will help prevent similar incidents and provide an additional layer of protection against unintended modifications.
