Create a Github token

Using Github CLI

This is the easiest way.

1. Install the official Github CLI
2. Login to Github using it
3. Ensure your token has the gist OAuth scope (it should, by default):

gh auth status

4. Copy your token to the clipboard:

macOS:

gh auth token | pbcopy

Linux:

gh auth token | xclip -selection clipboard

Windows:

gh auth token | clip

Manually

1. Create a new token at Github.
2. Ensure it has Gists permission under the Account.
3. Perform all of the steps from the previous section to land this token into your Settings Sync LSP server configuration.
