Since gh-star impersonates you for starring repositories, you
need to provide a Github Personal Access Token.
You can get an access token by following this instructions.
The only required scope for the access token is public_repo
.
In your project folder where the package.json
file is located run

You will be prompted for you personal access token. Then gh-star
will parse the package.json

npm-registry and get their GitHub url
(if any). The last step is to select which repositories you would like
