Descrição

### Describe the bug

When performing OAuth authentication against a remote https mcp server on a machine without browser, it spins waiting to open a browser and eventually times out and fails.

### Affected version

v1.0.40-0

### Steps to reproduce the behavior

Created a basic ubuntu 24 docker image with no UI elements that I can ssh into, install copilot cli, and run through the /mcp add flow. It will fail during the authentication step.

### Expected behavior

Ideally would like a fast fail if it can't identify a browser, and then device flow for oauth (assuming it's supported by the mcp)

### Additional context

_No response_

Direção de pesquisa

Start by reproducing the /mcp add flow against a remote HTTPS MCP server in the headless Ubuntu 24 Docker setup described. Trace the OAuth authentication path to determine how browser availability is detected and whether the MCP supports device flow. Done means headless sessions no longer wait for a browser indefinitely and follow the supported authentication outcome.
