Research direction

Start by reproducing the login flow in the Insomnia desktop app on macOS 26.3.1, including the browser redirect and manual token entry, using Insomnia 12.4.0 with Cloud sync. Compare the behavior across the listed sign-in methods and browsers. Done means the browser callback or manual token flow completes and the user can log in.
