github authenticated non enterprise user requires profileArn

[lbusch25]

Checks

• I have searched github.com/aws/amazon-q-developer-cli/issues and there are no duplicates of my issue
• I have run q doctor in the affected terminal session
• I have run q restart and replicated the issue again

Operating system

macOS 26.2.0 (25C56)

Expected behaviour

I am able to use Kiro-cli post authentication.

Actual behaviour

Currently I am unable to use Kiro-cli post authentication due to the following error:

Kiro is having trouble responding right now: 
   0: Failed to send the request: An unknown error occurred: profileArn is required but no profiles are available. Please log in and select a profile.
   1: An unknown error occurred: profileArn is required but no profiles are available. Please log in and select a profile.

Location:
   crates/chat-cli/src/cli/chat/mod.rs:1647

Backtrace omitted. Run with RUST_BACKTRACE=1 environment variable to display it.
Run with RUST_BACKTRACE=full to include source snippets.

Notably, the IDE works as expected. Some key details:

• GitHub-authenticated (non-enterprise) user
• kiro-cli whoami works fine
• kiro-cli chat fails with profileArn is required but no profiles are available
• The IDE works perfectly with the same account
• The IDE stores the profile at ~/Library/Application Support/Kiro/User/globalStorage/kiro.kiroagent/profile.json but the CLI never populates an equivalent

Steps to reproduce

Log in using GitHub SSO as a non enterprise user. The CLI should throw the listed response.

I am receiving this error after re-authentication, trying to doctor, and reinstalling the cli.
