Default loose cable after stage 1

anyone know wtf this is? I got home after a long ride and noticed this cable dangling. about a week ago I had the stage 1 done on my bike. doesn't look too important but wanted to make sure I won't hurt the bike.

It used to be connected to your stock A/C, just zip-tie it up out of the way

+1 to this. the stick tape clip that was holding it out of the way tends to come off very quickly, so zip tie is a good way to get it out of the way.
