A step-by-step guide details how users can connect their private GitHub repositories to Claude, enabling the AI to perform tasks like code reviews and branch audits. The process involves generating a specific type of Personal Access Token (Classic) on GitHub, carefully selecting the necessary permissions to avoid granting excessive access, and then integrating this token with the Claude Desktop application, which requires Docker to be installed and running. This connection allows Claude to interact with GitHub repositories without direct access to user passwords, enhancing developer workflows. AI
