Research direction

Open workshop/side-quest-06-02-cca-codespace.md and inspect the gh auth login sentence. Check whether the linked authentication section covers Codespace browser sign-in, then remove the misleading link or replace it with the GitHub CLI gh auth login documentation. Done when the sentence points to an accurate reference or has no link.

Workshop file reviewed

workshop/side-quest-06-02-cca-codespace.md

Problem

The file says:

If needed, run gh auth login and complete browser sign-in.

The #authentication section of the gh-aw Copilot Cloud Agent reference covers authenticating the create-agent-session / assign-to-agent safe outputs (PAT, GitHub App, magic secret). It does not describe gh auth login browser sign-in in a Codespace.

Suggested fix

Remove the link (the gh auth login prompt is self-explanatory), or point to GitHub CLI docs (https://cli.github.com/manual/gh_auth_login) instead.

Other reviewed files (side-quest-05-03-two-file-structure.md, side-quest-06-01-install-troubleshooting.md) had no drift against gh-aw v0.92.0; their doc links and anchors resolve.
