Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the keyboard navigation failure in GitHub Copilot CLI 1.0.68 while logged out, using the right arrow key from the Session tab. Trace the tab-navigation entry point and verify that the Gists tab opens with the arrow key while mouse navigation and reverse navigation still work.
