What

Reporting repo access through the token synced from your gh CLI login used to sit behind a remote flag that defaulted to off. That check is gone, so the token-sync access method is now reachable for anyone the remaining local check allows.

Details
  • The branch still runs after the app-install check and still requires the token-sync probe to succeed.
Evidence

method: "token-sync"

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
