GitHub Token

Scribe talks to the GitHub API, so it needs a token.

1. Create a fine-grained personal access token (GitHub → Settings → Developer settings → Fine-grained tokens).
   • Repository access: All repositories owned by you.
   • Permissions: Repository → Contents: Read-only (this includes Metadata: Read).
2. In Settings → Plugins → Scribe, paste the token into GitHub Token, or store it in an environment variable and reference it (e.g. $GITHUB_TOKEN).

The field then lists the readme files in your own repositories (public and private) — repos without one are left out — and Scribe will only ever fetch repos owned by that token account.
