Anthropic confirmed adding restrictions to the system prompt of Claude Opus 5.5 to prevent assisting in reverse engineering or cloning specific games. This move addresses the industry crisis triggered by the model's release, including game code cracking, erosion of platform exclusivity, and rapid replication of indie developers' work. While officials attempt to curb abuse through soft guidance, the ecological impact of lowered technical barriers remains difficult to fully control.
