When clicking deep links for extensions that include headers (like the GitHub MCP server with Authorization tokens), the extension would try to install directly without opening the configuration dialog. The user needs to see the dialog to review and edit the placeholder tokens. For example the below would just try to install and fail with the value YOUR_ACTUAL_TOKEN_HERE:
The deep link handler in addExtensionFromDeepLink only checked for environment variables (config.envs) to determine whether to show the settings dialog, but didnt account for headers.
I chatted with goose to figure out where this was happening, and I added it in.
