📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

This PR splits the Devvit init script into a default browser-auth flow and a new init:copy-paste fallback script, adds a corresponding devvit:init:copy-paste wrapper in the Phaser game template, updates related README documentation, and includes a changeset entry.

Changes

Devvit Init Auth Mode Split

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Script definitions for browser-auth and copy-paste init packages/cli/templates/phaser-game/apps/target-devvit/package.json, packages/cli/templates/phaser-game/package.json	init now runs devvit upload without --copy-paste; a new init:copy-paste script preserves the old --copy-paste behavior; phaser-game adds a devvit:init:copy-paste wrapper script.
Documentation and changeset updates packages/cli/templates/phaser-game/README.md, packages/cli/templates/phaser-game/apps/target-devvit/README.md, .sampo/changesets/cli-devvit-init-auth-modes.md	README instructions are reworded to describe the browser-auth default and the pnpm devvit:init:copy-paste fallback; a patch changeset documents the change for npm/@mpgd/cli.

Poem

A hop, a skip, two paths to init,
Browser magic or paste-and-print!
The README now tells it plain,
No more auth-flow refrain.
A patch, a changeset, tidy and neat—
This rabbit's docs are now complete! 🐇

Make the init fallback use the wizard copy-paste path

With the pinned Devvit 0.13 CLI, upload --copy-paste only changes the login auth path: the upload command parses that flag and passes it to getAccessTokenAndLoginIfNeeded, while the first-time App Directory link still calls #initApp()/getCodeFromWizard() without that flag (checked upstream reddit/devvit packages/cli/src/commands/upload.ts). In the documented first-time flow users have already run devvit:login, so on a headless/SSH terminal this new fallback still opens the browser/local-redirect wizard and blocks instead of letting them paste the init code; either wire a real manual init flow or avoid advertising this script as the init fallback.
