This is a great idea but I don't understand why I need to provide this service full write access to my public repos. Shouldn't full read access suffice?

We wanted to be able in the future to be able to automatically add / append the license text to the file. Adding the licenses one by one would be tedious so coming up with a way to bulk add the licenses seems essential.

Fair enough but I have some heavily used open source projects on GitHub so I can't take the risk. It would be great if there was a read-only option.

Also, some of my open source projects have an explicit clause which states that 'The source of this code shall not be misrepresented' so if chunks of my code showed up in some AI-generated code without attribution, it would be a pretty clear-cut case.
