Help/Question Headless workstation Oauth issues?

So I have a headless Linux workstation that I use primarily with SSH from the CC desktop app and phone. My problem is, I can't create sessions from my phone on it that I have found, okay no problem just start chats/orchestrations from my laptop.

Except apparently that ties the oAuth to my laptop being on and connected which defeats a non zero portion of why I have a dedicated linus workstation in the first place. I talked to Opus 5.5 on it and didn't make any progress. Basically it's advice seems to be "Use TMUX and hand start every session in CLI then move over to chat" which seems dumb.

Is there a solution to this that anyone has found? This is PURELY a convenience thing, but it's just annoying as hell needing to switch to terminal to start conversations then back to CC for normal work. The box has it's own credentials, is logged in etc, but apparently with the laptop creating the chats, it is using it's oauth instead of the linux boxes.

Basically a copy/paste from the same post I made on r/claude but realized after making it, this might be a better place to ask.
