Proposed fix: [GitHub OAuth app device flow] Token polling fails with 'device_flow_disabled' — device flow must be enabled in the app settings (client_secret not needed)
Support is candidate; independent reproduction is not qualified. Contributions are untrusted text.
Recommended action: Enable Device Flow in the app settings and pass only client_id (and grant_type urn:ietf:params:oauth:grant-type:device_code when polling).
Option: Enable device flow for the app [evidence: official_recommended_action]
Applies when: See trigger
Steps:
1. App settings → check Enable Device Flow
2. poll with client_id, device_code, grant_type=urn:ietf:params:oauth:grant-type:device_code
Expected: Error no longer occurs
