Judging by the screenshots of the product, it seems like repo:status is the permission that you should be asking for instead of repo. It's still read/write, but only to commit statuses and not code.

Is there something that your product is doing that requires read access to the code?

I tried repo:status but from my testing I wasn't able to list private repos. So even though I might be able to get their commits I had no way of discovering all of the private repos for a person/org.

I'll reinvestigate this as soon as I'm off the caltrain and have decent internet :)

I think r/w access is due to a limitation in the permissions from Github. Hopefully they will make this more fine-grained soon.
