Description

I am unable to run most keybase commands on MacOS:

$ keybase login
▶ ERROR API network error: Get https://api-0.core.keybaseapi.com/_/api/1.0/merkle/path.json?last=3772402&load_deleted=1&load_reset_chain=1&poll=10&sig_hints_low=0&uid=cdb3958232d90f8e09238099fc65f319: x509: certificate signed by unknown authority (code 1601)

Research direction

Reproduce keybase login on macOS and start by tracing the request to the shown api-0.core.keybaseapi.com URL, focusing on the reported x509 unknown-authority failure. Use log ID b26cf6567c21293bb044571c when comparing diagnostics; done means the affected Keybase commands no longer fail with this certificate error.
