Research direction
Start from the /chat entry point and reproduce the manual Datadog MCP setup in the macOS desktop app, comparing it with the CLI configuration that works. Investigate the reported 401 Unauthorized response during session.mcp.oauth.login for app version 1.0.21; done means the Datadog MCP initializes successfully in the desktop app without an authentication failure.
