The GitHub api doesn't allow for read only to private repos :(

Needs to be this way or no access to private repos. I can add the possibility to choose if people have a problem with the permissions

Yes, I'd rather not share access to my private repos with an untrusted party. I would like to try it with public ones though
You could add an option for the user to paste a token (fine grained etc) to retrieve only from repositories they grant via the token (and never write access)- and they can revoke at any time.
