Codewhale-owned xAI OAuth credentials at {} have no usable e

Error message

Codewhale-owned xAI OAuth credentials at {} have no usable entry. Run `codewhale auth xai-device` again.

What it means

Raised in validate_external_credentials via get_owned_credentials_locked: the Codewhale-owned xAI OAuth credential file for the named account exists in the store but either the file is missing (earlier guard) or no entry in it yields a usable scope/credential pair. The stored credentials are stale or corrupt and cannot be refreshed; the user must re-run `codewhale auth xai-device` to re-provision them.

Solutions

1. Run `codewhale auth xai-device` again to obtain and store a fresh token entry.
2. If relying on grok-cli credentials instead, run `grok login` to refresh that store.
