Description

I checked the logs myself, and it seems KBFS has trouble authenticating. I am logged in to keybase from the CLI, have been since before I was allowed KBFS access or tried it.

my log id: 03cacb6ee5fd96bfb5b01a1c

Research direction

Start with the supplied log ID 03cacb6ee5fd96bfb5b01a1c and the KBFS startup and authentication behavior, comparing it with the existing CLI login state. Done means KBFS comes online for a user who is already logged in through the CLI and the reported authentication failure is resolved.
