From the reused authenticated Gateway tab, the Student Center launch link is `https://gateway.sfsu.edu/redirect?site=sc`. It resolves to `https://cmsweb.sfsu.edu/psp/CSFPRDS/EMPLOYEE/SA/c/SA_LEARNER_SERVICES.SSS_STUDENT_CENTER.GBL?gsmobile=0`.

The cross-site redirect can leave browser-harness's active session bound to another Chrome target even though the intended tab navigated correctly. After launch, call `list_tabs()` again, identify the existing `cmsweb.sfsu.edu` Student Center target, and `switch_tab()` to that exact target before reading or clicking. Do not open a duplicate Student Center tab.
