Description

I am new to using Keybase. I used is as chat before. Today I decided to use files and discovered that I cannot access `/keybase/` folder.

The folder is there when I run `ls /`

But when I try to see what's inside or `cd` into it, it says `Permission denied`.

What do I do to fix this?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported `ls /`, `cd /keybase`, and folder-access behavior. The issue does not identify a platform, installation method, or source file, so gather those details and inspect the `/keybase/` access path. Done means the reporter can list and enter the folder without a permission error.
