🐛 [BUG] mas doesn't work via ssh

[GentleHoneyLover]

Your Environment

• mas version: 1.8.6
• macOS version (system_profiler SPSoftwareDataType -detailLevel mini): macOS 14.2.1 (23C71)

mas Install Method

• brew install mas (homebrew-core)

Describe the Bug

I'm using mas on all of the machines in my household. I manage my family member's machines by ssh-ing into them and running mas list and mas upgrade to install updates. Everything works fine when I run mas commands locally. However, when run the same commands via an ssh session I get completely different output.

mas list run locally outputs:

mas list run via ssh on the same machine outputs:

No installed apps found

Obviously, I cannot install MAS updates via ssh...

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Run mas list locally
2. Run mas list via an ssh session
3. Command outputs are not the same. Output in the ssh session will list no apps installed. App update is not possible.

Expected Behavior

mas list and mas upgrade work the same way regardless of whether run locally or via ssh
