What's Wrong?

When trying to sign into claude code through vs code, i have to sign in through the console, every other way i try to sign in, there is a 400 error. This is very annoying because claude randomly signs me out and your verification emails take 10 minutes just to hit the inbox

What Should Happen?

i should not get a 400 error
