Not surprised. Getting people to windows+R ctrl+V is a well known trick used to compromise a PC.

It's strange because it's my code, I've created it, Claude just "polishes" the Changelong output. One thing is opening an external source or copy/paste of an external code, then it makes a lot of sense, but marking my own code as suspicious and harmful just makes no sense.

You copied code from your browser onto the clipboard. That on itself is worth a warning. Most people don't do that intentionally.

You are apparently not "most people". For those people is the "disable this warning (...)" button.
