What is the procedure to disable 2FA and reset the CLI token so that operations on repos and login work correctly again?

I’m a bit confused what you’re trying to do, because these are separate things. You can’t log in with your PAT, you need your account password and the configured second factor (TOTP, hardware token, or SMS). Does the account password not work like you think it should, or the token?

The most important thing to make sure you don’t get locked out: Do you have the recovery codes for your account? You can use those instead of the second factor in case you lose it.
