Gist
GitHub Gist is a service provided by GitHub that allows users to share code snippets, notes, and other text-based content. It supports both public and private gists, enabling easy sharing and collaboration.
This is a first-class FlyMyAI MCP. Agents discover it automatically via tool search and call the actions below on demand - you never wire it up by hand. See the Composio catalog for how discovery works.
Connect
Gist authenticates with an API key. Generate the credential in your Gist account, then paste it into FlyMyAI the first time an agent uses a Gist action.
Fields to fill in FlyMyAI

Personal Access Token | A personal access token generated from GitHub with the 'gist' scope enabled. (required) |
