Alternatively, use %[1]s--with-token%[1]s to pass in a personal access token (classic) on standard input.
The minimum required scopes for the token are: %[1]srepo%[1]s, %[1]sread:org%[1]s, and %[1]sgist%[1]s.
Fine-grained personal access tokens are not supported.
Take care when passing a fine-grained personal access token to %[1]s--with-token%[1]s
as the inherent scoping to certain resources may cause confusing behaviour when interacting with other
resources. Favour setting %[1]sGH_TOKEN$%[1]s for fine-grained personal access token usage.
Alternatively, gh will use the authentication token found in environment variables.
This method is most suitable for "headless" use of gh such as in automation. See
