Description

I just updated the keybase app on my mac, haven't used it in a while. I had to login; during that process, I was asked to run keybase device add. That resulted in ERROR Operation timed out. I then quit the keybase app and tried to login again through the app. Keybase threw ERROR Provision transaction already in progress. Running keybase login resulted in the same error.

Research direction

Start with the reported macOS flow: keybase device add times out, then keybase login reports that a provisioning transaction is already in progress. Use log ID 6eafbb90fff3b4a223311a1c while investigating the provisioning and login entry points; done means the reported failure is reproduced and its cause and resolution are documented.
