 2. You sign in and authorize Dispatch in the browser.
 3. The token is cached locally at **`~/.dispatch/auth.json`** for future runs.
 
-Authentication is triggered automatically when you run `dispatch` with `--source github` or `--source azdevops`. No separate login step is needed.
+Authentication happens **early in the CLI lifecycle** — during `dispatch config` (right after datasource selection) or at startup for `dispatch` and `dispatch --spec` runs — before any pipeline work begins. If tokens are already cached the check is instant; otherwise the device-code prompt appears while the terminal is still free, so it is never buried under pipeline output. No separate login step is needed.
 
 **Re-authenticating:** Delete `~/.dispatch/auth.json` (or just the relevant platform key inside it) and run `dispatch` again to re-trigger the device flow.

+In interactive dispatch runs, exhausted automatic retries pause the failed task in the dispatch UI so you can manually rerun it in place. A rerun re-enters the normal task lifecycle, including planning unless `--no-plan` is set; verbose or non-interactive runs will not wait for input and instead stop predictably with the task left failed.
