What's Wrong?

OS: CachyOS (latest)
I have both work and personal claude subscriptions on the single system. Personal claude is used as claude code in a terminal. Work claude is used in claude desktop. When I reboot my system, I'm forced to log in into the work claude in claude desktop.

What Should Happen?

After the each system reboot sign in should not be called.

  5. Verify claude desktop asks for re-login
