Description

I am constantly getting nagged about `dschneiderch does not have read access to /keybase/private/scripts` and also `/keybase/private/bin`

These folders don't exist and all my keybase folders are owned by root anyway. is this correct?

```
dschneider@macbookpro227 ~ % ls -l /Volumes/Keybase/
total 0
lr-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 0 Sep 8 16:38 private -> /Volumes/Keybase (dschneider)/private
lr-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 0 Sep 8 16:38 public -> /Volumes/Keybase (dschneider)/public
lr-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 0 Sep 8 16:38 team -> /Volumes/Keybase (dschneider)/team
dschneider@macbookpro227 ~ % ls -l /Volumes/Keybase/private
lr-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 0 Sep 8 16:38 /Volumes/Keybase/private -> /Volumes/Keybase (dschneider)/private
```

I'm also seeing behavior in issue [#13390](https://github.com/keybase/client/issues/13390) but I don't see `./bin` in my PATH. Also, after I ignore this folder in the gui it immediately reappears in the filesystem.

```
dschneider@macbookpro227 ~ % echo $PATH
/usr/local/Caskroom/miniconda/base/bin:/usr/local/Caskroom/miniconda/base/condabin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin
```

I'm on macos 11.5.2 with zsh shell.
my log id: 234d967e16bfd6bff1e8af1c

any advice?

Research direction

Start by reviewing the behavior described here alongside issue #13390 and the provided log ID. Trace why the nonexistent private/scripts and private/bin paths trigger access warnings and reappear after being ignored on macOS. Done means the warnings and unwanted filesystem entries no longer recur for this setup.
