Description

I installed Keybase once before on a different computer. I'm setting it up on a new computer - I have it installed and have entered my login info.

The instructions say "In the Keybase app on your computer, go to Devices > Add new..."

However, this menu item doesn't exist. How do I proceed from here?

Research direction

Compare the documented “Devices > Add new...” instruction with the current Keybase setup flow described in the issue and shown in the screenshot. Identify the correct next step for an existing user setting up a new computer, then update the relevant setup documentation and verify that the revised instruction matches the app.
