    It’s probably done via a system prompt and not actual weights, so you could probably work around it if you say the right things.

      Yeah, it’s sysprompt only, so you can trivially sidestep it via:

      • Jailbreak prompt
      • tweakcc to alter the prompting baked into claude code
      • Any other non-CC harness
      • Scripted API calls

And as other people have pointed out upthread already, it’s already a bit of a moot point since the Chinese models are already eating Claude’s lunch and will do the same stuff without complaint.
