From readme:

How to generate a GitHub personal access token. Make sure to give repo permissions.

[lehphyro]

There are no repo permissions.

[lindell]

[lehphyro]

That's for classic tokens, fine-grained personal access tokens don't work like that.

[lindell]

The fine-grained access token is in beta and does not work with APIs that is needed for multi-gitter to work (the GraphQL API).
