2. In Alfred set the API_KEY environment variable to your GitHub API key/Access Token.
   • Multiple accounts (e.g. a personal user and a separate enterprise user) are supported as a comma-separated list; repositories from all accounts are cached together: ghp_personal,github_pat_work
   • For GitHub Enterprise Server append @<host> to the token: ghp_personal,ghp_work@ghe.example.com
   • Each token must be SSO-authorized for the organizations it should see.
