What
When the stored Anthropic credentials have expired and there is no refresh token to renew them, tools now report "Anthropic profile login expired" with a prompt to sign in again, rather than a generic auth error.
Details
Triggered by auth errors whose message contains "has expired and no refresh is available".
These errors are recorded in refresh-failure telemetry under a distinct no_refresh_available class.
They now skip the retry path that invalidates the token and tries again, since a retry cannot succeed.
Evidence
Anthropic profile login expired
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
