Appshots block disallowed purchase/order-history pages (expected policy behavior)

Resolution
Further local investigation found this was expected Appshot policy behavior, not a Brave Browser or attachment defect.
The active Brave page belonged to a disallowed purchase/order-history category. Codex captured the window metadata, screenshot, and accessibility text, then correctly stopped the attachment during its post-capture URL-policy check.
What this means
- Brave itself is allowed by the app policy.
- Brave Appshots succeeded earlier in the same session on a different page.
- The block is page-level, not browser-level.
- Restarting the helper does not change this outcome.
No site name, URL, account details, screenshots, or page contents are included here.
Closing as not planned because the reported behavior is the intended safety policy.
