Preflight Checklist:

All authentication attempts fail immediately with "Invalid Authorization" error (red text) in Claude Code Desktop.

claude config set apiKeyreturns same "Invalid a..." error - All fail identically
Expected behavior:
Authentication succeeds as it did a few hours ago
Actual behavior:
