Unable to Authenticate Wrangler in any Remote Development Environment

Version 1

Complete solution

[tkalejaiye (commenter)]: If wrangler login fails on a remote dev environment (Gitpod, Codespaces, Stackblitz) with "Received query string parameter doesn't match the one sent!", forward port 8976 to your local machine when you ssh in, e.g. ssh -L 8976:YOUR_HOST:8976 user@remote.

The OAuth callback needs that port reachable locally.

Context from the issue

gh:cloudflare/workers-sdk#2874: Issue cloudflare/workers-sdk#2874 (closed, 28 comments): https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers/wrangler/commands/#using-wrangler-login-on-a-remote-machine outlines how to authenticate the Wrangler CLI when using a remote development environment (e.g. Codespaces).

However it doesn't seem to work. The original shell always puts out this error message at the end

Received query string parameter doesn't match the one sent! Possible malicious activity somewhere.

I've seen this on Gitpod, Codespaces, Stackblitz, and...
