* X OAuth Login Process

** Attempts Made

*** Attempt 1: Direct OAuth flow
- ❌ Failed: OTP expired (code 482109)

*** Attempt 2: Fresh OTP
- OTP: 927519
- ❌ Failed: Page remained on X login, didn't navigate to Google

** Technical Issues

1. *Timing:* OAuth flows are time-sensitive
2. *Session state:* Browser cookies/session handling complex
3. *Redirect handling:* X → Google → X redirects not working via automation

** Recommendation

Use *manual approach* for now:
- User logs in normally
- Share bookmark content directly
- Export/import bookmark files

** Alternative Solutions**

1. App Password (more reliable for automation)
2. OAuth 2.0 with refresh tokens
3. Browser extension automation
4. Session cookie reuse
