Workspace restricted - "Suspicious activity detected"

Hi,

My workspace was restricted with the reason "Suspicious activity detected." I'd like to understand why and get this resolved.

I deployed a small Node.js service (v2ray-sub-updater) that does the following:

  1. Fetches a text file from a single GitHub raw URL containing a list of proxy configuration entries.
  2. Opens short TCP connections (3-second timeout) to check whether each listed server address/port is reachable, using a concurrency limit of 50 simultaneous connections.
  3. Filters out unreachable entries and serves the remaining list as plain text on one HTTP endpoint.

The source list had around 56,000 entries, so the service made a large number of outbound TCP connection attempts to many different external IPs in a short time. I believe this is likely what triggered the suspicious activity flag, even though it wasn't intended as scanning or abuse - just a reachability check on a subscription list.

Could you please review this and let me know what's needed to lift the restriction? I'm happy to reduce the concurrency or rate-limit the checks going forward if that helps.

Thanks!

We're not able to share the specifics behind why a workspace restriction was applied. There is no self-serve action that will lift this restriction, and upgrading or adding a payment method will not change it.
