Research direction

Start by reproducing the Redis Cloud login in Redis for VS Code 1.4.0 on macOS, including the same attempt in Devin Desktop, and inspect the extension's available logs. Trace where the Authenticating... state stops progressing. Done means authentication completes and Redis Cloud can be used normally.
