Recommended action: Surface the verification URL and code to the human through a channel they actually watch, stop polling at expires_in, and only restart on explicit request; for unattended agents use a pre-provisioned token (GH_TOKEN) or GitHub App installation token instead of device flow.
Option: Use non-interactive credentials for unattended agents [evidence: official_recommended_action]
Applies when: See trigger
Steps:
1. provision GH_TOKEN / GitHub App installation token via secrets
2. reserve device flow for sessions where a human is present
3. stop polling at expires_in and report the failure
Expected: Error no longer occurs
Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client): untested.
