Why does it require write access to my repos?

basically the question. I understand if it needs read access. but write access should be absolutely not required.
The extension needs only read access and write access is absolutely not required. But GitHub OAuth permission scopes don't have a "repo read" access level. It is either nothing or "repo" access, which comes with both write and read.
If at any moment, GitHub adds a "repo read only" access level, the permission can definitely be changed to that. But until then, this is the only way I guess.
Closing the issue for now. (Thank you for asking, so that it can be clarified for everyone). 😄
