Bug Description

I can't authenticate in the CLI because the browser automatically redirects from the authentication page to the chat page. I don't have time to click the "Authorize" button.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Copy login link from CLI.
  2. Past login link to browser.

Expected Behavior

I expect to be able to click the "Authorize" button on the authentication form.

Actual Behavior

Instead, I am immediately redirected to the chat page as soon as the form is displayed, without having a chance to click the button.

Additional Context

In the CLI, I see the following error:

OAuth error: Invalid code. Please make sure the full code was copied
