Research direction
Start by reviewing the existing token acquisition path and its environment-variable fallback, then consult the linked GitHub CLI documentation for gh auth token. Done means ghapi can use the token reported by that command as a fallback without breaking the current authentication behavior.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
As official github cli tool has a nice command that exposes its token, this could also be used as a fallback mechanism by ghapi instead of using the less safe environment variable approach.
