Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in the AWS Toolkit tab using the profile-switching steps in the report, then trace the connection-switch flow and resource-list refresh behavior. Done means selecting another profile updates the displayed resources automatically; verify this across multiple accounts or IAMs.
