Description

I own this site. It is DevAccel Labs' internal developer tool ("AI Gov" / Traces Sync). Its setup dialog shows the install command for our CLI with a Copy button, the same way developer-tool sites do. On Windows the command was

irm https://ai-gov.devaccellabs.com/install.ps1 | iex

and pressing Copy triggered the prevent-clipboard-write ClickFix rule (^irm .+? iex\b in filters-general.txt), showing "Beware, uBlock Origin blocked a potential ClickFix attack" to one of our developers on 2026-09-16. Nothing is written to the clipboard except on that button click; there is no auto-copy, no fake captcha, no obfuscation.

Requesting a ~ai-gov.devaccellabs.com exclusion on the generic rule (as for brew.sh / christitus.com / community-scripts.org / massgrave.dev / natfrp.com). The dialog itself is behind sign-in (company accounts only), but the domain's purpose is verifiable publicly:

For transparency: as a workaround I have already changed the copied text to the spelled-out Invoke-RestMethod https://ai-gov.devaccellabs.com/install.ps1 | Invoke-Expression, which the current regex does not match. I would rather have the domain excluded than depend on that; happy to answer any questions or provide a test account.

Browser name and version

Chrome (current stable); reported by a colleague, reproduced by running the current rule's regex against the copied text.

Other extensions used

None

Country

No response

Screenshot(s)

Screenshot(s)

Not available (the report came from a colleague; the banner text was the standard "Beware, uBlock Origin blocked a potential ClickFix attack: irm https://ai-gov.devaccellabs.com/install.ps1 | iex").

Configuration

Details
uBlock Origin: current stable (colleague's install; exact version not captured)
listset: defaults only (rule is in ublock-filters, filters-general.txt line "*,~edu,~edu.cn,…##+js(prevent-clipboard-write, …)")
