Steps to reproduce

  1. not logged in to grok build

  3. make sure grok provider is on

Expected behavior

it shows a one time log in page and sign in works after completion

Actual behavior

open t3 code
even before the app shows up it starts opening new web pages for grok build login opens every ~3 seconds. if you complete the login it still does not stop and does not sign in upon completion of login in and device auth
manually opening grok cli and sign it it stops

    Same root cause as #5852. Fix is in #7070 (b0079ede): the provider probe no longer starts Grok ACP (and its login browser) when the CLI has no saved credentials.

    Thanks for the detailed report. This looks like the same issue tracked in issue #5852.

    Both reports start Grok browser authentication during background discovery without saved credentials. The discussion explicitly identifies the same root cause.

    I'm closing this as a duplicate as part of an automated pass on all open issues. I linked this report from issue #5852 so its extra details remain available. This does not mean the underlying bug is fixed.
