Description

### Checks

- [x] I have searched [github.com/aws/amazon-q-developer-cli/issues](https://github.com/aws/amazon-q-developer-cli/issues?q=) and there are no duplicates of my issue
- [x] I have run `q doctor` in the affected terminal session
- [x] I have run `q restart` and replicated the issue again

### Operating system

macOS 15.7.0 (24G222)

### Expected behaviour

### Context

Randomly getting access-denied errors when the chat session in going for long duration

### Workaround

* Tried to re-initiate the login with `q login` but issue was still occurring

* Tried `q logout` and `q login` - issue gets resolved

**NOTE**: found [Similar issue](https://github.com/aws/amazon-q-developer-cli/issues/1310) but the error message is little bit difference

### Actual behaviour

```
Amazon Q is having trouble responding right now:
0: Failed to send the request: unhandled error (AccessDeniedException)
1: unhandled error (AccessDeniedException)
2: service error
3: unhandled error (AccessDeniedException)
