```

Start with TestSSHAuthenticate in pam/integration-tests/ssh_test.go and the failure wrapper at pam/integration-tests/vhs-helpers_test.go:348, then inspect the named failing VHS tapes such as simple_auth and remember_broker_and_mode. Reproduce the failures through the go-tests-coverage job and trace the VHS output; done means TestSSHAuthenticate runs reliably across repeated CI runs.
