Description
When I try to install the application I get to the login in screen, enter my username and then the button just spins. When trying to use the command line tool to install I get:
[LaunchAgents]$ keybase install

Research direction
Start by reproducing the reported keybase install failure on macOS and use log ID 05b1fd967352e24f6e843e1c when checking the diagnostic context. Trace the installer’s attempts to write the listed LaunchAgents plist files; done means the updater, service, and KBFS install without permission errors and the application can proceed past login.
