Restores the behavior where the authentication flow is triggered immediately upon server startup. This ensures that users are prompted to authenticate (if needed) as soon as the plugin is launched, rather than waiting for the first tool usage.

This pull request restores the intended behavior of triggering the authentication flow immediately when the server starts. This change ensures that users are proactively prompted to authenticate, if necessary, right after the plugin launches, thereby improving the initial user experience by preventing delays associated with on-demand authentication.

Highlights

  • Immediate Authentication: The authentication flow is now triggered immediately upon server startup, ensuring users are prompted to authenticate as soon as the plugin launches, rather than waiting for the first tool usage.

Code Review

This pull request restores eager authentication on server startup. The implementation is a single, clear line of code that achieves this goal. However, this change introduces a regression for users in headless or non-interactive environments by blocking server startup if user interaction is needed for authentication, preventing even non-authenticated tools from being used. I've added a comment with more details on this potential issue.
