The script will:
|
||||
1. Generate a short-lived JWT using your App ID and PEM key
|
||||
2. Exchange the JWT to get a GitHub Installation Access Token
|
||||
3. Output the `export GH_TOKEN=...` command to set it in your environment.
|
||||
1. Automatically construct a short-lived authorization assertion using your App ID and PEM key
|
||||
2. Call the GitHub API to securely exchange that for an Installation Access Token
|
||||
3. Output the `export GH_TOKEN="..."` command to set it in your environment.

### 2. Authenticate the gh CLI
|
||||
|
||||
With `GH_TOKEN` set, the `gh` CLI operates securely and without needing a separate authentication login for most API operations. Note that `gh auth status` may not reflect the token since it checks local config, but `gh` will respect the `GH_TOKEN` environment variable!

## Security Notes
|
||||
|
||||
- Never log or echo the PEM key, JWT, or installation token to stdout in production.
|
||||
- The JWT is valid for at most 10 minutes. The installation token is valid for 1 hour.
|
||||
- Never log or echo the PEM key or installation token to stdout in production.
|
||||
- The installation token represents your GitHub App and is strictly valid for 1 hour from generation.
|
||||
- Store the PEM file with restrictive permissions (`chmod 600`) and never check it into git.
