Description
Here:
https://github.com/simonw/llm/blob/7f49cc254b1fdc2eb1555a03627d31bf38337926/llm/cli.py#L905-L910
That's from before I refactored how keys work in 6c6b100f3ee16983e9a3d9ec09aecb2b91210ed7
Do we still need that branch?

Research direction
Start in llm/cli.py at lines 905-910 and compare that branch with the key-handling refactor in commit 6c6b100f3ee16983e9a3d9ec09aecb2b91210ed7. Determine whether the branch is still reachable or necessary after the refactor. Done means retaining it with a clear justification or removing it while preserving the expected CLI behavior.
