What's Wrong?

[BUG] : I am not able to login to Claude Code just two days before the actual renewal date. It happens every month. I get the prompt that "Not logged in · Please run /login". Though I tried, it never opened a browser to authenticate. But Claude application is working fine. I have been facing this issue for the past three months. Initially I thought it was just a mistake, but now I notice that it keeps happening.

What Should Happen?

It should happen, only renewal is n't done on-time or after the actual expiry date.
