Github copilot is able to connect without issue. I'm fairly certain Github Pull Requests also works fine.

Steps to reproduce the behavior:
1. Install extension (on Mac?)
2. Try and use extension

**Expected behavior**
The extension should be able to access Github API

Research direction

Start by reproducing the failure on macOS with extension version v0.26.3, using the issue's installation and usage steps, then inspect the extension's connection error and available logs. Done means the extension can access the GitHub API without showing the reported connection message.
