I "fixed" this for myself with tweakcc which let's you patch the system prompts. I changed the malware part to just be "watch out for malware" and it's stopped being unaligned.

They really should hand off read() tool calls to a lean cybersecurity model to identify if it's malware (separately from the main context), then take appropriate action.

The newest versions of the Claude Code package on npm just download the native executables and run that instead. Does tweakcc support that yet? Last time I tried it, there were some pretty huge error messages. For now I've been coping with a pinned version.
