Problem
The UI fails to connect when using an external goosed backend for debugging, timing out after 20 seconds even though the server is running.
Root Cause
The checkServerStatus() call happens before the API client is configured with authentication headers.
Solution
Configure the client with auth headers before checking status in connectToExternalBackend().
Testing
Start goosed: GOOSE_SERVER__SECRET_KEY=test GOOSE_PORT=3000 ./target/release/goosed agent
Connect UI: just debug-ui
