[BUG] macOS desktop app "Continue with SSO" hangs — app cancels its own OAuth network connection right after opening the browser

### Preflight Checklist

- [x] I have searched [existing issues](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues?q=is%3Aissue%20state%3Aopen%20label%3Abug) and this hasn't been reported yet
- [x] This is a single bug report (please file separate reports for different bugs)
- [x] I am using the latest version of Claude Code

### What's Wrong?

## Environment
- Claude desktop app version: 1.49585.0 (Electron 44.2.0)
- Claude Code CLI version: 2.1.236 (works fine, see below)
- macOS version: 26.6.2 (Build 25G83)
- Browsers tested: Safari and Chrome (both as default browser) — same result with both
- Not MDM-enrolled (`profiles status -type enrollment` → "MDM enrollment: No"), so this is not related to an Enterprise/Platform SSO extension

## Summary
Clicking "Continue with SSO" in the Claude macOS desktop app opens a browser window/tab, but the tab stays blank (no URL, no loading indicator, no content) and the login never completes. `claude login` via the CLI works correctly on the same machine, so this appears to be specific to the desktop app's SSO flow.

## Steps to reproduce
1. Open the Claude desktop app (macOS, signed out).
2. Click "Continue with SSO".
3. Observe: default browser opens, but the resulting tab/window is blank — no URL populated, no page loads.
4. Meanwhile `claude login` in the terminal, on the same machine, completes normally.

## Diagnostic detail (from `log stream --predicate 'process == "Claude"'` while reproducing)
- `14:22:45.819` — app calls into macOS's AppSSO framework: `(AppSSOCore) canPerformAuthorizationWithURL` → `SOAuthorizationCore ... result = NO` (expected/normal on a non-MDM-managed Mac, confirmed not the cause).
- `14:22:45.820` — app activates the `com.apple.SafariLaunchAgent` XPC connection (i.e. it asks the system to open the default browser).
- `14:22:47.346`–`14:22:47.383` — the browser briefly becomes the frontmost app, then loses frontmost status back to Claude ~37ms later.
- `14:22:48.557`–`14:22:48.567` — the Claude app itself opens an HTTPS/TLS connection ("Connection 1", CFNetwork, attribution: developer) and then **actively cancels it**: `cancel()` → BoringSSL `SSL_shutdown` (clean `close_notify`) → TCP `FIN`. This is a self-initiated cancel by the app process, not a server reset or a network/proxy failure.

This suggests the desktop app's OAuth handshake starts a request (possibly polling/waiting for the browser callback, or fetching the actual auth URL to hand to the browser) and cancels it prematurely — before the browser ever receives a valid URL to render, which is consistent with the browser tab staying blank.

## Expected behavior
"Continue with SSO" should open the browser to a valid authorization URL and complete the login, as it does via `claude login` in the CLI.

## Workaround
Using `claude login` in the terminal works reliably. (Note: this does not appear to authenticate the desktop app — it uses a separate credential store.)

### What Should Happen?

Browser should be opened with a website to login and/or a redirect back to the Claude desktop app

### Error Messages/Logs

### Steps to Reproduce

1. Open the Claude desktop app (macOS, signed out).
2. Click "Continue with SSO".
3. Observe: default browser opens, but the resulting tab/window is blank — no URL populated, no page loads.
4. Meanwhile `claude login` in the terminal, on the same machine, completes normally.

### Additional Information

_No response_

Start at the macOS desktop app's "Continue with SSO" entry point and reproduce the blank browser tab while capturing the provided `log stream --predicate 'process == "Claude"'` diagnostics. Compare the desktop flow with the working `claude login` CLI flow, then verify that the browser receives a valid authorization URL and the SSO login completes without the app cancelling its connection.
