+   `net.request` on the same session with its cookies (`manualRedirectFetcher`),
+   because `session.fetch` rejects a `redirect: 'manual'` request that meets a

 2. With `accessProbePath: '/api/health'`, before the system-browser sign-in starts (and
    before a stored company loads) the shell asks the origin through the
    partition with `redirect: 'manual'`, deciding from status and `Location`
-   only (Electron's `session.fetch` reports a wrong `response.url`, so it is never
-   read). A non-3xx answer, or a 3xx back to the origin itself, is a pass; a 3xx
+   only (the `redirect` event names the target before anything is followed). A non-3xx answer, or a 3xx back to the origin itself, is a pass; a 3xx
    to any other host (Access, or an identity provider) is not. A network failure
    is not an Access answer: the window shows the "Could not reach" screen with
    Try again. When Access wants a login, the window shows the origin so the person passes
